Elements

His first album of new recordings for almost 3 years and follow up to In A Time Lapse sees Einaudi influenced by the world around him. Nature’s elements (earth, water, air, and fire), mathematical and scientific elements, musical forms and works of arts including those by Kandinsky. This album brings these seemingly disparate elements together into one concept. Performed by Einaudi and his band the album includes his trademark piano melodies and stirring ensemble playing on tracks including Night, Elements and Four Dimensions.

De Italiaanse componist en pianist Ludovico Einaudi was sinds zijn grote doorbraak met de solo-cd ‘Le Onde’ uit 1996 of geliefd of verguisd. Een tussenweg bestond niet. Tot in 2013 zijn album ‘In a Time Lapse’ verscheen. Classic FM prees de “dromerige pianowerken en de beweeglijke orkestrale soundscapes” en The Independent noemde hem de “ware erfgenaam van enerzijds Satie en anderzijds Philip Glass en Steve Reich”. Ook deze opvolger zal een breed publiek aanspreken.
