Underwater, Einaudi's first full solo piano album for 20 years was released last Friday, 21st January 2022.
A manifesto for life and statement for this time when the world around him was quiet and silent, Underwater holds 12 beautiful and intimate piano tracks featuring his trademark melodies. The album was written while Ludovico was isolated at his home in Italy, working without any distractions or the usual commitments that come with his busy schedule.
Ludovico says of the writing process: "I felt a sense of freedom to abandon myself and to let the music flow in a different way. I didn't have a filter between me and what came out of the piano, it felt very pure."
