Album Description:
2001 release from the world renowned symphonic composer.The inspiration for Ludovico Einaudi's 'I Giorni' was a12th-century folk song from Mali about a hippopotamus whowas cherished by the residents of a nearby village butkilled by a hunter. 'The song,' writes Einaudi in hissuccinct liner note, 'is sung as a lament for the death ofa king or a great person or for the loss of a loved one.'The result is a tender & introspective set of 14 pianopieces.

Rating: - Simply Beautiful
I heard the title song 'I Giorni' on the radio and thought it was excellent so I looked up the CD on the internet and after listening to a few clips, decided I would buy it.

The flowing melodies are very relaxing and not dissimilar to Nyman's 'The Piano', so if you like this style of music, I would highly recommend buying it.
