Hello and welcome to the next post in my Off the Scale series!
Today, I want to take a look at one of my all time favourite classical pianists; Ludovico Einaudi.
I discovered him around ten or so years ago when I was working for an IT firm and I must say, this was where I first started to realise the powerful effect of music...
I Giorni - The Days
Some pieces can lift you up, some can pull you down and the rest? Well let's just say that the rest I would prefer to stay away from because I know what I like and I like what I know!
For Einaudi to impact me so much these last few years it has helped me navigate through my melancholic seasons where I seem prone to bouts of depression sometimes light and sometimes so severe that I can't even leave the house... again though, this is not a lifestyle post, so that's for another time.
The way Einaudi plays his piano has a way of caressing my moods into absolute serenity, but with that serenity comes a danger to be pulled into a depressive episode.
Onto the piece where you can listen for yourself: -
Without YouTube, regular readers of my blog would know I'd be severely lost because its vast, vast library of songs means I can, hopefully, bring you all along for the ride that I'm on, whether I'm glorious like I am right now, or whether I am in the doldrums of another depressive episode.
Thankfully, it is through music like this and a dedication to you readers that brings me back to my blog once more, back into the fray and, hopefully, inspiring you, too, that classical music is not an acquired taste; it's an essential ingredient to my life!
Peace... and duct-tape! ;-)
