Hello everyone, I am a 26-year-old guy, I have never studied music... For quite a few years now I have been listening to classical music, every year I go to Ludovico Einaudi's concert; his songs move me, I get goosebumps every time and I am moved, I cry at every concert.. No musical genre has ever had this effect on me... A few years ago I thought about wanting to start practicing the piano... My grandmother is a pianist and so is my mother.... But effectively, I don't know if it would give me the same emotions as listening to that type of music.. To start with, they recommended a Yamaha P45 to me... Opinions?
In every generation, there is agreement on "the music of your time." You find Einaudi captivating because it is "well-constructed" repetitive music that fascinates all young people. At its core, however, there is very little! It is evident that if you are raised listening to Einaudi and Allevi, you have this point of reference and feel the difficult classical repertoire is distant and boring. A friend of mine, when she went on vacation with her small children, would put Mozart records in the car, specifically the arias from The Marriage of Figaro. By then they were humming them, and when they got into the car they would say: "Mom, put on Figaro." The aria "Non più andrai farfallone amoroso," a very catchy and pleasant piece, they sang from memory—and not just that one! We are full of wonderful Music, also contemporary and light, naturally. As long as it is Music of a certain interest! I am sorry to disappoint your immediate pleasure regarding Einaudi, but you must also approach, I say also, something different without fear. From a technical point of view, Einaudi, Allevi, and the past Cleydeman are well-prepared pianists who toss off their repetitive little tunes with great ease and mastery! This too is the result of classical training and is nonetheless a work of study. Dacia Maraini, a great writer, told me: "It is the concept of the duck—when you see it moving calmly, brushing the surface of the water... think that under the water it is doing great work... that which does not appear."
