Rating: - Inspired
Well this is my first review on anything,so it must count for something.
I got this last week and must off played it at least 6 times in the car.

Thank you Classic FM for introducing me to this excellent album,and thank you to the honest reviews from the customers who had the sense to buy it.
The tunes are all different,not as some say the same,they grow on you.
A tune has been going through my head all afternoon and is as I type!

Rating: - Relaxing and Reflective
In Echoes, what you get is a relaxing and reflective collection of piano music which is truly excellent. Einaudi is not producing music of any particular genre, but the closest I would say it comes to is 'ambient' rather than 'classical'. I think to treat it as classical would be a bit off the mark.

People have talked about it as background music and it's an album where you can pay attention and enjoy it or just choose to let it pass by you. If you travel or commute a lot, you'll find ... Read More

Rating: - A bit too samey for my liking
I love piano music and after hearing one of the tracks on Classic FM was determined to buy a copy of this CD. I was looking forward to listening to it but after the first three tracks I started to feel disappointed. Einaudi is best listened to in isolation - ie on Classic FM. An entire CD of his is pretty boring and rather depressing to be honest. There is little differentiation from one song to the next: most are solemn, ponderous, many are written in 3/4 time giving the impression of a long waltz. ... Read More

Rating: - Calming, Reflective... Subtly Unique
Einaudi's music is truly unique... subtle and calming. I imagine it'd take that certain 'ear/heart' to appreciate his blend of music. First time I heard Ludovico's music was in a taxi in rural Sussex (odd, I know), and don't recall anything else about my journey. I've since got myself 3 CDs from his collection, and whilst it's difficult to choose a favourite, I Giorni's still an all time heart-stopper for me. His music's worth a try... especially whilst working, driving, or ambient music at dinner or ... Read More

Rating: - BORING, BORING, BORING
What do people see in this man's music? It could have been written better by a bored music student teenager. It has no direction, there's no musical development in it, it doesn't have the quirky but intelligent simplicity of Satie, and it's over-rated and over-exposed. Sorry, but Einaudi is rubbish.
