My piano and string rendition of I Giorni by Italian composer and pianist, Ludovico Einaudi. Einaudi was inspired to compose the piece (which translates as ‘The Days’) after hearing a twelfth-century folk song that originated in the country of Mali. The song describes the killing of a hippopotamus by a hunter, and the subsequent mourning in the local village. The entire album from which this song is taken (also called I Giorni) is one long lament, with each piece demonstrating Einaudi’s ability to compose utterly simple yet beguiling melodies. Released in 2002, I Giorni was the first solo-piano follow-up to Le Onde, the disc that introduced the composer to British audiences and which became an almost instant hit on Classic FM. Le Onde, coming soon....
