Trained at the Conservatorio Verdi in Milan, Einaudi began his career as a classical composer, later incorporating other styles and genres such as pop, rock, folk, and world music.
Einaudi has composed the scores for a number of films and television productions, including This Is England, The Intouchables, I'm Still Here, the TV miniseries Doctor Zhivago, and Acquario (1996), for which he won the Grolla d'oro. His music was used as the score for the Golden Globe and Academy Award-winning films Nomadland and The Father.
He has also released a number of solo albums for piano and other instruments, notably I Giorni in 2001, Nightbook in 2009, and In a Time Lapse in 2013. On 1 March 2019, Einaudi announced a seven-part project named Seven Days Walking, which was released over the course of seven months in 2019.
In 2005, he was appointed an Officer of the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic.
Einaudi was born in Turin, Piedmont. His father, Giulio Einaudi, was a publisher working with authors including Italo Calvino and Primo Levi, and founder of Giulio Einaudi Editore, while his paternal grandfather, Luigi Einaudi, was President of Italy between 1948 and 1955. His mother, Renata Aldrovandi, played the piano to him as a child. Her father, Waldo Aldrovandi, was a pianist, opera conductor, and composer who emigrated to Australia after World War II.
Einaudi started composing his own music as a teenager, first writing by playing a folk guitar. He began his musical training at the Conservatorio Verdi in Milan, obtaining a diploma in composition in 1982. That same year he took an orchestration class taught by Luciano Berio and was awarded a scholarship to the Tanglewood Music Festival. According to Einaudi, "[Luciano Berio] did some interesting work with African vocal music and did some arrangements of Beatles songs, and he taught me that there is a sort of dignity inside music. I learnt orchestration from him and a very open way of thinking about music." He also learned by collaborating with musicians such as Ballaké Sissoko from Mali and Djivan Gasparyan from Armenia. His music is ambient, meditative, and often introspective, drawing on minimalism and contemporary pop.

this feels like that scene in a movie when you've finally pieced all the clues together but it's too late
@niijigod3864
lol yeah
@posyflaura6764
and you have to sit back and watch helplessly while the following events unfolds in front of you and there is ABSOLUTELY nothing you can do to help! And it's all your fault, even if it isn't, it is. And then the world moves on as if nothing happened, they forget, but YOU know inside your heart what happened and it takes you little by little by little until... until... and you .... ........ ... .. .
sorry that got dark :)
Have a nice life - who ever is reading this - you will be happy again!!

This is one of many comments, but I wanted to put this out in the world. This music is so incredibly powerful. I can just imagine myself on top of a misty cliffside by the sea, and the rain begins to pour with a raging wind and i run, i just run and run under the rain laughing and crying at the same time, finally appreciating life. It's powerful, man...

I listened to this while traveling on Cape Breton in Nova Scotia and it was just as you've imagined.

Petricor,
Petrichor: "a pleasant smell that frequently accompanies the first rain after a long period of warm, dry weather."
