Ludovico Einaudi

[Aaron Smith]

Anyone heard of this Italian pianist/composer? I'm sure at least some of you Italians have. My brother just bought his "Divenire" album the other day, and it is full of really beautiful stuff. Check out this song:

Le Onde rules!!!

It indeed sounds great! It really has movie sountrack type of vibe to it I totally dig the work from Yann Tiersen too

I heard a piece in top gear I just had to find out more about and turned out to be Einaudi, he's a modern classic for sure! It was Ritornare

thanks for posting this Aaron, I'm digging it. It reminds me of videogame/film scores.

Yeah I know him....another pianist very famous is Giovanni Allevi

I showed the Einaudi piece to my buddy who lives in Hollywood and is trying to get into serious composing himself, and he said it reminded him of this Thomas Newman piece (which is also awesome):
