Ludovico Maria Enrico Einaudi OMRI (born 23 November 1955) is an Italian pianist and composer. Trained at the Conservatorio Verdi in Milan, Einaudi began his career as a classical composer, later incorporating other styles and genres such as pop, rock, folk, and world music. Einaudi has composed the scores for a number of films and television productions, including This Is England, The Intouchables, I'm Still Here, Nomadland, the TV miniseries Doctor Zhivago, and Acquario (1996), for which he won the Grolla d'oro. His music was used as the score for the Golden Globe and Academy Award-winning films Nomadland and The Father. He has also released a number of solo albums for piano and other instruments, notably I Giorni in 2001, Nightbook in 2009, and In a Time Lapse in 2013. On 1 March 2019, Einaudi announced a seven-part project named Seven Days Walking, which was released over the course of seven months in 2019. Einaudi was born in Turin, Piedmont. His father, Giulio Einaudi, was a publisher working with authors including Italo Calvino and Primo Levi, and founder of Giulio Einaudi Editore, while his paternal grandfather, Luigi Einaudi, was President of Italy between 1948 and 1955. His mother, Renata Aldrovandi, played the piano to him as a child. Her father, Waldo Aldrovandi, was a pianist, opera conductor, and composer who emigrated to Australia after World War II. Einaudi started composing his own music as a teenager, first writing by playing a folk guitar. He began his musical training at the Conservatorio Verdi in Milan, obtaining a diploma in composition in 1982. That same year he took an orchestration class taught by Luciano Berio and was awarded a scholarship to the Tanglewood Music Festival. According to Einaudi, "[Luciano Berio] did some interesting work with African vocal music and did some arrangements of Beatles songs, and he taught me that there is a sort of dignity inside music. I learnt orchestration from him and a very open way of thinking about music." He also learned by collaborating with musicians such as Ballaké Sissoko from Mali and Djivan Gasparyan from Armenia. His music is ambient, meditative, and often introspective, drawing on minimalism and contemporary pop. After studying at the conservatory in Milan and subsequently with Berio, Einaudi spent several years composing in traditional forms, including several chamber and orchestral compositions. He soon garnered international attention and his music was performed at venues such as the Teatro alla Scala, the Tanglewood Music Festival, Lincoln Center, and the UCLA Center for Performing Arts.] In the mid-1980s, he began to search for more personal expression in a series of works for dance and multimedia, and later for piano. Some of his collaborations in theater, video, and dance included compositions for the Sul filo d'Orfeo in 1984, Time Out in 1988, a dance-theater piece created with writer Andrea De Carlo, The Wild Man in 1990, and the Emperor in 1991. Later collaborations include Salgari (Per terra e per mare) (1995), an opera/ballet commissioned by the Arena di Verona with texts by Emilio Salgari, Rabindranath Tagore, and Charles Duke Jr, and E.A. Poe (1997), which was conceived as a soundtrack for silent films. ... Source: Article "Ludovico Einaudi" from Wikipedia in English, licensed under CC-BY-SA 3.0.

Ludovico Einaudi ist ein italienischer Komponist und Pianist.

Ludovico Einaudi, né le 23 novembre 1955 à Turin, est un compositeur et pianiste italien. Alors qu'il est encore enfant, Ludovico Einaudi est initié à la musique par sa mère qui lui donne le goût du piano. Il commence son apprentissage musical au conservatoire Giuseppe Verdi de Milan où il décroche un diplôme en composition. Ensuite, il étudie avec Luciano Berio. En 1982, il obtient une bourse au Festival de Tanglewood. Ludovico Einaudi habite dans un domaine viticole dans la région du Piémont, en Italie. Son père, Giulio Einaudi, est l'éditeur et fondateur de la maison d'édition Einaudi et son grand-père, Luigi Einaudi, a été Président de la République italienne de 1948 à 1955. Sa carrière a commencé dans les années 1990 avec son premier succès discographique, The Waves (1996). Il a composé la bande originale de plusieurs films. Depuis 2003, ses concerts et ses tournées sont constamment complets, tant en Italie qu'à l'étranger. Son album, Una Mattina, est arrivé en tête du classement classique au Royaume-Uni. Son œuvre suivante, Divenire, est devenue disque d'or en Italie, et Nightbook en 2009 s'est vendu à plus de 700 000 exemplaires dans toute l'Europe. En 2006, il crée le groupe Whitetree avec Robert Lippok et Ronald Lippok. En juin 2016 il interprète le morceau Elegy for the Arctic sur une plateforme flottante dans l'océan arctique pour soutenir l'opération «Save the Arctic» de Greenpeace. Les 13 et 14 juin 2017, durant saison d'été du Teatro dell'Opera di Roma aux Thermes de Caracalla, Ludovico Einaudi est venu exécuter les deux seules représentations italiennes de son Elements Tour. Comme en 2015, date à laquelle il a présenté son album précédent In a Time Lapse, le pianiste et compositeur turinois était entouré de ses musiciens Federico Mecozzi au violon, Redi Hasa au violoncelle, Alberto Fabris à la basse électrique et à l'électronique temps réel, Riccardo Laganà aux percussions et Francesco Arcuri à la guitare. Avec le piano à queue comme point central, les différents sons se sont chevauchés et entremêlés dans une composition qui combine naturellement des éléments musicaux acoustiques, électriques et électroniques. Cette même année 2017, au Royaume-Uni, Ludovico Einaudi se classe en 15e position du classement «Les albums classiques officiels les plus vendus au Royaume-Uni ces 25 dernières années». En 2019, Ludovico Einaudi se lance dans un projet historique qu'aucun compositeur n'avait entrepris auparavant. Le pianiste et compositeur italien avait récemment annoncé une nouvelle série d'albums, intitulée Seven Days Walking, qui lui permettra de sortir un nouveau disque chaque mois, à partir du 15 mars 2019. En 2020, sa musique est utilisée dans les films Nomadland et The Father. Source: Article "Ludovico Einaudi" de Wikipédia en français, soumis à la licence CC-BY-SA 3.0.
