Classical superstar Ludovico Einaudi on The Summer Portraits

Italian pianist and composer Ludovico Einaudi is a powerhouse in classical music. As one of the most streamed classical artists of all time, his atmospheric, meditative piano sound has captured the imaginations of acclaimed filmmakers and famous fans, such as Iggy Pop, Nicki Minaj and Ricky Gervais. Ludovico’s new album, “The Summer Portraits,” was inspired by paintings he saw on a summer vacation that transported him back to his childhood. He joins Tom Power at the Glenn Gould piano in our studio to talk about his life, career and the healing power of music.
