EINAUDI LUDOVICO is the son of a famous italian publisher: Giulio Einaudi, and grandson of President of Italian Republic (the first Italian President, after the IInd WW), from 1948 to 1955: Luigi Einaudi. Ludovico Einaudi was born in Milan in 1955 and began studying piano at a very young, Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory in Milan. To me, Einaudi does not violate the piano, not a relationship of subordination with it. His is, anyway, a light touch, in search of easy come and sound of the combination of colors that goes well with the more chronic boredom: you will never get-go rushing into this "Becoming", for how many times you can browse. The strings and synthesizers, background, pattern designs that amaze and enchant, a parody of themselves and their absurd romance. Make one more and you have a complete disaster, but no: even cancel each other, the two complement and embedding perfectly, ready for a stellar trip. What we can say for sure that Ludovico Einaudi, at this moment, is the artist's most successful classical music at this time in Europe, and that makes me proud to be Italian. Here, videos of his best songs.
CECILIA BARTOLI is an actress and one of most extraodinary, awesome, incredible Italian female "mezzosoprano" voice. Cecilia Bartoli borns in Rome in 1966 from a musician family ( her mother, father , and also her grandmother were classic singers ). Cecilia loves to play romantic music, as Mozart andRossini, in that autumn She made a very interesting disco called 'Sacrificium", dedicated to Italians Castrati (Castrato) . In XVIIIst century 400 boys, every year, were castrated to becomes 'special singers'. That album, for me, will be very important for Cecilia Bartoli and for all classic and baroque music. The 'castrato' singers tradition in Italy were very respected and only after a cultural revolution of 'belle epoque' Castrated stop to exist, the women started to sing in the theatres, but also after that, the 'castrato tradition' remains in south Italy for all 1800. Farinelli and Caffarelli were the most famous italians castrated in the history, after to have studied with M° Porpora, or after studied the "Porpora's method' ( six years of musical studies; canto and solfeggio).
I think that album will be one of most important of all Cecilia Bartoli's career, sheself said 'These pièces ( about Sacrificium'), has been the most difficults to record for me, in all of my life". PS: the videos below n. 7, 8 and 9 are songs very awesome from 'Sacrificium'.
