Ludovico Einaudi on Tour
An Italian pianist whose luscious, minimalist tunes have captured the world's attention, Ludovico Einaudi has enjoyed a lauded career full of pensive music and thrilling, worldly adventures. After finishing his music studies in Milan, Einaudi has traveled extensively, premiering works at the Tanglewood Music Festival, Lincoln Center, UCLA and Teatro alla Scala. In the early ‘10s, he toured the U.S. and Canada for In a Time Lapse, appearing on various radio shows. Einaudi has a rich tradition of recording and releasing live concerts, from his La Scala Concert 03.03.03 to 2009's Live in Prague and 2010's Royal Albert Hall Concert. Additionally, he's participated in many iTunes Festival recordings, including multiple shows in London and a 2019 release from Milan's Piazza Liberty. In a live setting, fans of Einaudi's contemporary classical catalog find themselves transfixed when he and his small band of well-rehearsed instrumentalists take the stage. An aura of mystery (think moody lighting and smoky effects) often accompanies the evocative, sprawling compositions, full of gentle arpeggios and circular chord sequences.
Ludovico Einaudi in Concert
Born in 1955 in Turin, Piedmont, Einaudi was raised in a highly artistic household — his father was a publisher of novels, while his mother was a pianist. The young Einaudi learned piano and guitar, beginning to compose at a young age. In his teens, he trained at the Conservatorio Verdi in Milan, eventually studying with the famed Italian postmodernist Luciano Berio. Graduating from school and premiering works everywhere from Italy to Los Angeles, Einaudi embarked on a successful recording career with Decca Records. He released his first solo piano album, Le Onde, in 1996 to much acclaim, eventually being certified gold in Italy. 2004's Una mattina would prove to be his big breakthrough, charting in Italy and Belgium and going gold in Italy again. 2009's Nightbook used synthesizer sounds to create an atmospheric vibe that built on his repetitive structures, poppy strings and percussion, and playful melodies. 2013's In a Time Lapse was among his most successful records, charting in over 10 countries and going platinum in the Netherlands, silver in the UK and gold in Italy. Einaudi is also well-known for his film scores, which have earned him many distinctions, including Best Soundtrack at the Italian Music Awards, and even an Oscar nomination.
this was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. He and the orchestra are absolutely amazing performers!!! They are even better in concert. Save up a little and get seats in the front because seeing their finger movements are so inspiring.
I LOVED the show. Amazing musicians, could have listened all night. However, I bought a Gold Circle ticket, the highest priced ticket and I only had partial view. Not happy about that. I was really excited about the show and went all out and then felt like I would have been better off with a cheaper ticket.
Would highly recommend anyone to go see this guy and his supporting musicians. Music and percussion was superb from start to finish.
This was our first experience with Ludovico Einaudi's Music....we were totally transformed and blown away!! The Audience give several standing ovations, we just didn't want the experience to end! If you have the opportunity GO!
Oh lordy, this was the best concert I have every witnessed. (I'll admit I was even more excited to see Ludo perform than I was for Regina Spektor.) But seriously... breath-takingly phenomenal. I am amazed that this wondrous composer is able to be caught in the glory of his own work as well as it captivates his audience. The orchestra with him was just as amazing. I cried, I laughed, I awed, I gained a whole new respect for the tambourine.
This concert was simply amazing!!! I enjoyed it a lot he played music from his former album Divinire as well, the violonist was perfect and the piece of his new album In a time lapse, Experience was great!!! The seats were ok they were more towards the left but you could see the whole orchestra regardless... Great show till the end!!!
My Daughter loves Ludovico Einaudi's music and found out through Facebook he would be in the US. So we made a day of it and drove from NJ to Washington DC. What a perfect day. The concert was amazing. Ludovico ad his ensamble were terrific. The seats were terrific and we even recieved 2 signed CD's of his new material! the Venue was beautiful also!
I haven't been to a lot of concerts in my life but this one easily takes the cake. His music is so haunting and melodic that you can easily lose yourself just by closing your eyes. I have made a vow that if he is performing somewhere within driving distance, that I will see him again and again.
A concert for a life time, truly beautiful. Einaudi is a gifted musician.
Ludovico Einaudi and his ensemble did not disappoint. We traveled to DC from Columbus for the concert, and would do it again and again. There were some truly great moments involving the electric cello and hand percussion. Overall just a fantastic show!
It was my birthday eve, and it's the best thing I could have gifted myself! Not only his ensemble so talented (all of them were juggling multiple instruments), Ludovico delighted with a solo piece as well. Such a fantastic performance! Such a reverie. Managed to make me smile, delight, well up...
Amazing, melancholic yet inspiring, emotional and the bottom Line phenomenal
What can I say....Simply Amazing! best concert i have ever been to
Einaudio piano music is just beautiful to listen to, This combination with the Ensemble was an interesting spice in addition . I loved it
I have most of his CDs and love his music. Seeing him and his amazing ensemble was a wonderful way to spend the evening. He is not only a gifted composer and pianist, but strikes you as a very likable individual as well. He was gracious and made sure the other musicians on the stage were recognized and given the credit they deserved. And it seems others appreciate his music as well: Sting and his wife sat in the audience a few rows in front of us!!
This group is not to be missed...do yourself a favor and see them live.
Magnificent. Magic. Unforgettable. As a classical and contemporary music lover, this was by far one of the best concerts I've been too. Impossible not to fall in love with Einaudi's latest album, In a time lapse.
INCREDIBLE! I have seen him a few times and this was by far the most amazing concert of is... Breathtaking, a must see!!!
I just forgot to breath during more than 2 hours. No words to describe it!
Excellent and Amazing performance ! As expected from the great Ludovico Einaudi, Daniel Hope and all the great great musicians who are all breathtaking ! You can feel the vibes that flow among them, and the pleasure they have to play together. It was my second time listening to Ludovico Eindaudi LIVE and it was still fantastic ! Bonus : what a pleasure to have a signed version of his new album ! Unfortunately two little disappointment : -I do not call "Golden Seat" a seat that is on the second row at one edge of the room...(my neck is still hurting and I could not see all the musician...) -The quality of the speakers were terrible !! Come on, this class of artist truly deserve the best equipment !!
