An Evening with Ludovico Einaudi The Nightbook Tour

Ludovico Einaudi presents his new project Nightbook which is a musical meditation on the transition between light and darkness, the known and the unknown.

Expressive and with a more open compositional structure, sonic colours are created through the close blending of the piano with the strings and percussion, and from the use of electronics which amplifly the sound of the piano, projecting it like a shadow in all directions.

The project grew out of the ideas and ‘musical sketches’ that Einaudi jotted down in a notebook whilst on tour around the world. Einaudi describes the project as “A night-time landscape. A garden faintly visible under the dull glow of the night sky. A few stars dotting the darkness above, shadows of the trees all around. Light shining from a window behind me. What I can see is familiar, but it seems alien at the same time. It’s like a dream – anything may happen.”

The album Nightbook will be released in the Autumn.

£15, £20, £25
