Ludovico Einaudi en concert

  • Música

The return to Barcelona of a musical alchemist who has enchanted audiences around the world with repertoire that fuses electronic, world and classical music.

Is it his compositions? Is it they way he interprets them? No one knows the secret of this wizard, able to fill his music with light and feeling, infusing it with unique lyricism and a sound that is at once sophisticated and natural. The frontiers between genres cease to exist when the Turin-born Ludovico Einaudi, who studied at the Conservatory in Milan, sits down at the piano. Trained under a 20th-century avant-garde master, the composer Luciano Berio, Einaudi might have had a brilliant career performing classical music, but instead opted for the most absolute musical freedom. Those who heard his first radio and television appearances were quick to hail his talent in what can only be called a phenomenon of direct connection between artist and audience. Now, in the Internet age, the composer’s fame continues to grow day by day. Film soundtracks and music for television form just one facet of Einaudi’s musical career, and this cult composer now returns to Barcelona to regale spectators at the Grec with one of his hypnotic live performances.
