Ludovico Einaudi

Italian pianist and composer (born 1955)

Ludovico Einaudi belongs to the musical record as a figure whose work outlasted the moment that produced it.

The record lists Ludovico Einaudi as Italian pianist and composer (born 1955).

Ludovico Einaudi was born at Turin in 1955. His recorded nationality is Italy. He trained at Milan Conservatory.

Amplification, television and the album as an art form defined this period, and the record industry reached its greatest scale.

He worked as pianist, composer and film score composer.

The instruments recorded are piano.

His work is classed as minimalist music, neoclassical new-age music and 20th-century classical music.

Music outlives its context more reliably than any other art, and usually for reasons its makers did not predict.

Recognition followed: Officer of the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic (2005).

That the work came out of Italy shaped it: musical traditions, training institutions and the reach of a recording industry all differ by country.
