Monday And Primavera By Ludovico Einaudi

I find both pieces lovely.

Played by the composer himself, Ludovico Einaudi began playing his own music as a teenager. His music was composed from playing it on a folk guitar.

Luovico's music has been described as ambient, meditative and introspective.

He draws his sources from contemporary pop and minimalism.

There is some reminder of Philip Glass in repeated escalating chords and transition variation.

His search for more personal expression began with composing for dance and multimedia and later for the piano.

By the late nineties, he began writing for film and television soundtracks and commercial advertisements.

His soundtrack for UNTOUCHABLES in 2011 won accolades and awards.

The Sochi 2014 Olympics featured PRIMAVERA his music for the Procter & Gamble TV Commercial.
