Ludovico inspired me to start playing piano 2 months ago, at 33 years old. I now wonder how I lived without it for so long.

This music awakens something inside that feels at piece, something from ages ago when it was a more simple time. When life was about living and not just going through the motions. Sorry if this sounds crazy.... 

This music comforted me when I was homeless in North Dakota. On foot. Dragging around an old shopping cart (not a stolen cart btw) rusty old King Soopers cart with my carpet rolls. Padding. Tarp for a wind block. Cold. Seriously cold in front of a defunct K mart. Took advantage of the lights in front. Couple of outlets that actually worked. Sleeping on the concrete. Nobody messed with me. I was safe. At 6 am I would walk 150 yards to a McDonald’s. To use their bathroom. I felt so small and ashamed. Maybe one out of five days I had a little money- to buy whatever on their menu. In order to make me feel like I was worthy enough to use their restroom. Talk about feeling so bad, so dismal, so ashamed. I literally wanted to jump in a hole and disappear. Somehow I survived that. No longer homeless. Got a car. A real bed. I’m lucky you know?! I am . God ain’t done with me yet. Nuff’ Said.

My father passed away one month ago. He fought until his last breath against dementia. My mother, my brother and me spent his last two weeks next to him at his bed in hospital. He no longer could speak, but his eyes were following our voices and movements consistently. He shed a tear when I whispered him into his ears, that I love him and that he is the best dad. Now we prepare his funeral and I know that we will play this song. It perfectly summaries our grief and sorrow, but more importantly our entire life and moments with him, which will echoe for eternity. He left from our life, but not from our heart. We love you dad ❤

Nomadland chose the right soundtrack ❤️

This amazing music continues to inspire, haunt and move me. My wife and I used to listen, cry and dance to Ludovico's music and wonder at the possibilities that it brought. Sadly, I lost my beautiful wife two years ago. The music plays on and from time to time I am drawn back in and can't help but cry and be so very thankful for what it means to me. She will never be forgotten and in some way the music of Ludovico makes it all just right again. Thank you Mr Einaudi, you are truly a gifted man.

I’m 37 and haven’t started yet because I don’t have the finances. I’m paying for my daughter’s piano lessons and my son’s guitar lessons. I guess I have to wait until they are a bit older and then I will be able to get some lessons. I love piano and i always dreamed to play 😍

Seems like all nice people and soothed souls congregate at Ludovico's music.

The music of this man expanded both my taste in music and what I perceived as true beauty. I am forever grateful I discovered his art. I discovered it at a time I needed it the most. It helped me through the roughest time of my life. I was so completely drawn into the music and it gave me something I couldn't find anywhere else. It gave me peace from my pain. It took me outside of myself to this wonderful place. It was a spiritual experience. I had never experienced anything like it.. It was surreal and it helped me survive the most horrible tragedy I will ever go through and I am forever grateful for this man and his incredible talent. He saved me and doesn't even know it. I have come to realize there are few things in life, if any, as the power of music.

On Saturday the 19th of January at 9pm (italian time), I will play for you live from home for one hour alone with my piano some of the music from my new album In a Time Lapse Ludovico

Anni fa l'ascoltavo e la mia anima tortuosa si rilassava, ora è l'unica canzone con la quale mia figlia di 6 mesi si addormenta quasi immediatamente.. ♥️

This man is my go-to for late nights when I can't sleep, for studying, writing assignments, for rainy Sunday afternoons and long car trips and early train journeys. This is the sort of music that just makes you feel something, like you're alone and in company all at the same time. He's one of the few modern composers who still captures that beauty of old classical music with the twist that makes it sit well in the contemporary age. Einaudi, you goddamn musical genuis

My ears were built for this kind of music exactly...

A todos los que escucháis esta belleza de música os deso una vida llena de paz y armonía. Músicas cómo está nos llevan a dimensiones elevadas de belleza , armonía y luz, que nos hacen sanar el alma.Este es un mundo muy duro para seres altamente sensibles, pero tenemos estos regalos de belleza que nos ayudan a transitarlos con más amabilidad y ligereza, gracias maestro por regalarnos esta exquisitez.☆♡☆

I just leave a random comment here which is much more like a prayer. I lost my beloved grandma one month ago, I've never met her because she's from a country so far away from my home. I hope she will get my prayer, maybe this wonderful music could help me to connect with her soul. Maybe we will meet again in the future, may God bless her soul. Thank you Ludovico for warming my soul with your beautiful music and for helping me to remember my beloved grandma.

Mr Einaudi inspired me to start playing piano 10 years ago, now I'm a piano teacher and I love my job. Thank you sir! Love and support from Argentina 💜

I remember me coming out of the university library, just before sunset, sitting in the bus on the way home and listening to this song on repeat. i'm not sure how that memory makes me feel..

Some people are just born to show us beauty through this amazing art called music

This man is the most heart- touching musician I've ever listened to, sir I would love to thank you for all of what you did for the man kind.

Music like this has no cultural or language barriers. It doesn't know colour or size. It speaks to people from all walks of life. That's a special thing to give to the world, and I truly do hope that this man, Ludovico, knows what he has gifted us with. Oltremare is so much more than beautiful; so much more than a masterpiece. Words fail me to describe such an amazing work of art. But for me, this song is a savior. It's brought joy to my life when I felt anything but joyful; it's taken away tears and pain in the middle of a sleepless night; it's calmed me down when I thought I couldn't be calmed. Oltremare is so incredibly special to me and will always have a place in my heart. Thank you, Ludovico Einaudi, for giving this to me and anyone else that's ever needed it. I am eternally grateful, and eternally indebted to you.

I am a young piano player, and I have played some of his pieces. Oltremare is one of them, and this song over the others has especially inspired me to create my own music. Thanks to Mr. Einaudi, I have created over 8 songs (each different in their own way) in the past couple of months. My parents see I have found a talent for composing music and I just want to thank Mr. Einaudi for that. I hope he continues to inspire others just like he did to me.

i have been listening to Mr. Einaudi's Music for years now and this one is my favorite. Never got bored of this one and i think i never will. I think of this track as an empty book in which every person listening to this can fill his/her own story, the ups and downs, the high and the lows. As a child i used to think if magic was real. i know for sure now.

I listen mainly to brutal stuff like black metal and deathcore but for a come down and for handling deep emotions i listen to Ludovico Einaudi and its always special what his music do with me. Gets me calm and give me the chance to let my sad emotions out. I cry in joy when i listen to Songs like this.

In this hard period I think we all need ludovico's art 💚

"Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things."

Sometimes when im listening to this i have to pause it because it's too much. THATS when you know a piece is utter brilliance.

I'm here because of the movie NOMAD. Now I want to learn piano. 🎹🥰

Isn't it amazing how one played such a piece that often. Countless times I sat alone in my chamber, letting my fingers float above the old piano, making her sing just for me and noone else. And yet after more than three months away from home I know it is the first thing I'll do when coming home. Never tired of it!

E' perfetto. Ludovico riesce a trasmettere una serenità che pochi riescono a fare. E poi il titolo, "Oltremare". Quanti significati può assumere. Semplicemente perfetta.

Thank you intouchables for letting me discover ludovico einaudi 😩

Listening to this while working on my presentation, I feel like this song describes just everything - love, friendship, wisdom, dreaming... The whole meaning of life in eight minutes. Not only it helps me relax and concentrate, but it also makes me think and brings new colours to my grey days.

people wandering around and wondering what´s the meaning of life, and chasing material dreams when the key to happiness is embedded in things like this

all of the comments on here are so mellow and peaceful, hello i love you all

Am i the only one who gets goosebumps when listening to this beautiful music?

It's the most brilliant musical pieces written in the last fifty years.. God bless..I listen to it daily..

This guy is simply a musical genius. Listening to his piano music takes me an indescribable sense of deep inner peace and spiritual harmony.

After my mom died and after all the terrible things ive seen and have been through... this music is the only music that gets me in peace with myself when i play it on the piano.. thanks for all the great songs you have composed Ludo!! Thanks for bringing me my inner peace!!

Ludovico Einaudi, Is a piece of art himself. I was going through a hard time a couple of months ago and I used to listen to his masterpiece's and just feel so content into his music. I would just go into a trance where his music touches my soul. This song is one of my favourite songs from him. This man has an amazing talent :) xx

Its amazing how many emotions this man can create with one instrument, he's a true savant, and legend of our time.

How is it possible that a man can speak such a beautiful language with such simple sounds if you close your eyes you can see a very very soulful story

Favorite music: Metallica and Einaudi ;)

Oltremare is a masterpiece. Pure emotions that flow through the soul. There si a strong feeling of sadness in his music. It is the heart that writes it.

Einauldi and Tiersen are Gods of Music

The soft touch to the grand piano is always recognizable... what a composer and musician! I absolutely adore his compositions; it feels like fairies running over the keys to play...

This makes me so proud being a pianist! Music isn't just a thig you can hear. It also isn't enough to feel it. You must understand it. You must listen to the storys it's telling you without words. Music is a language. Everyone understands another thing but those who don't understand anything listen wrong to it. Music can give you feelings that no one else can give to you. It could make you forget the world and all the pain in it. Music is a language and I'm proud that I'm able to "speak" it.

Sometimes I think people are missing out on this extraordinary composers work. But when I see the number of views and I realize I’m wrong. (37 Million and counting, and that’s just this composition alone.)

Probably the only piece of music that's ever made me want to cry, but in a good way I think! Simply stunning!

This is one of my favourite pieces of Ludovico’s music! A true genius! Beautiful, beyond this world! God given talent! Exceptional performance with so much energy! I just cannot describe just how this music makes me feels! Helped me in so many ways! So grateful to Ludovico for all his hard work in putting this rare music together! It must be from God our father in heaven! Peace to all!

8 minutes have never gone by so quick in my life, must repeat.

It's truly amazing to me. I never heard of this guy until the loss of my baby daughter. We lost her at 6 months and this music carried me through. It's still dies till this day. She would be three years old today. I saw him in person shortly after our loss at UCLA. Beautiful.

Nunca le había escuchado. Cuantas cosas nos perdemos cada día por no pararnos un poco. Precioso.

I really like Heavy Metal and Rock and Roll, but listening to Ludovico is special, I really like it ..

Everything is alright now.

I painted my house in Italy to the beautiful inspirational sound of this piano playing genius. It will always remind me of those whitewashing days. Great memories that flood back to the sound stimulation of grear music.

La armonia en cada nota transmite una tranquilidad y una paz que solo la música puede ofrecer. ¡¡ Espléndido!! ¡¡Maravillosa melodía!!

24 saatin hatta haftaların ayların içinde arada şöyle ruhumu gerçekten beslediğimi düşünüyorum. Peki bir adamın notaları sözde kendim için geçirdiğim onca saatten daha iyi geliyorsa ruhuma bu çok acı değilmidir? Mutsuzluk.. Halıların altına gizleyince kaybolduğunu sandığım toz taneleri gibi. Umuttur yaşamımın güneşi

I am in another world when I am listening to this wonderful music.

I actually had to stop listening to this to keep me from crying! WTF?! I'm a man! Chainsaws, bears, explosions!!!

Ludovico hits right to the core of the soul!

Hiçbir söz söylemeden ne çok şey anlatan şarkılardan... ❤️

Stunning in its simplicity. It brings tears to my eyes.

There is nothing to be upset about but this song makes a tear want to fall from my eye.

This music looks like life, begins with quiet notes then goes into hard and changes to peace (which when we old enough). No need to grow old to live in peace, now is the best.

Magnífico! Ludovico 💓 amo todas as canções. 🌻🌻🌻🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

Once in a life time ---you hear a song and it stays with you---- Threw good times , bad times , its tresured-- and there you are--

The ability to create music and appreciate it in all it's forms is truly a gift from god, the very fact music touches your inner most soul and and gives such joy is testimony to the fact we were designed by a loving creator.. I am truly grateful

Maravillosa la música de este hombre!!! Dios le dio un don increíble!!! Dios te bendiga Ludovico Einaudi!!!

When I've had a busy day, or have annoyed people, I come home and I hear that music, then I disappear from that hard, sometimes so cold world, I just disappear, I get invisible when I hear your music. Thank you

for me one of his greatest. So quiet but powerful. If you listen to music nowadays you have to understand the difference between music made to rake in the cash. Where harmonies are expectable and everything sounds pretty the same with nothing in it. And on the other hand there are the others. Those who are really into it and love their thing. You can see it, hear it and feel it in every little facial expression (Einaudi has plenty, much to read; love em :) He makes you staring at things without notice them because your mind is somewhere completely else in the past or in the future. I'm near to my dad right now. He died 7 month ago and left me listening to music in another way than before. Thanx Lu for your lyrical support helping me through the days...

This song was played at the funeral of my grand aunt. I loved her very much and her death was really shocking. Every time when this song plays, I think about her and I wish that this song will be played at my funeral too.

Nose porque me salieron unas composiciones de Ludovico pero solo puedo decir GRACIAS, no paro de llorar, me transmite tantas emociones, adoro el piano, espero algún día poder aprender Increíble que en 24 años sea la primera vez que escuche este compositor . Gracias y mas gracias por tu música

Non si può descrivere a parole ciò che si prova ad ascoltare questa musica così profonda, ti entra dentro, ti libera l 'anima ,mentre le lacrime vengon giù...

I've loved this song from the moment I first heard it and my love for his music has only grown!! Ludovico Einaudi's music puts me in another world and is a true gift from God. Thank you 😁

No words can describe the feeling this music gives me, and many other people. Thank you, Ludovico

My daughter started using his music to soothe her daughter to sleep when she has colic. I heard it and fell in love. I generally like all music including classical and piano and violins etc. This is different with its highs and lows. I am addicted now. You feel Ludovico's essence through his music and it is so encouraging to know that the younger generation is affected, even babies!!

This helps me relax in my darkest and angriest hours. Thank you, Ludovico, for sharing your art with us, humans. Forever greatful

Real music, the sounds that dont judge. So emotional...

Semplicemente splendida, la mia preferita di Einaudi. Non mi stanco mai di ascoltarla, mi tocca nel profondo del cuore e dell'anima, sublime.

"Music can change everything for you if it's honest and strikes a note inside". This quote by Maddie Marlow is perfect to describe what this music does to me everytime I listen to it.

La sua musica ha il potere di “guardarmi” dentro.... nel profondo dell’anima... meravigliosa ❤️

I think this is the first time ever I hear real music. No words to discribe his work. Amazing

I just heard this at the end of the movie Nomadland. I am so mesmerized by this piece. It is so so so beautiful and peaceful. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this, I really need this music in my life.

Brividi e lacrime ogni volta che l' ascolto

Ludovico Einaudi is fucking amazing, literally can not express my love for his work, such a beautiful pianist aspire to him so much, love learning and listening to his work.

l'arte ci trasporta in dimensioni profonde che non conoscono dualismo permettendo la connessione all'UNO universale riportandoci a "casa"

Solo puedo decir que su música me calma me da paz pero que desde mi niñez me gusto mucho el piano y nunca he asistido a ningún concierto ni nada por que vengo de una flia muy humilde y de bajos recursos pero me encantaría alguna ves asistir a un lugar dnd pueda escuchar en vivo❤

14 years, a thousand times that i heard this piece. I can’t stop replaying it. It heals my broken heart.

Escucho muy seguido su música y me trae muchas experiencias. Recuerdo mi infancia y mi hermano ya fallecido, es una profundo recuerdo que sale desde lo más profundo de mi alma.

Nomadland. Traveling with this on, gazing out the windows, heaven.....

Me encanta escuchar este tipo de música me da paz mental y apacigua mi corazón, me hace viajar en mis pensamientos a lugares q nadie más conoce 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

La musica fa bene all animo, perché in fondo ognuno di noi è una bella persona ...

I can never explain in words the story this song tells, but I can feel the story.

My soul is broken I'm here for healing ... What an amazing artist

Heard this on New Blood and was celebrating so hard.

Meravigliosa come lo scrosciare d'acqua che ti ripulisce lo spirito, questa musica evoca emozioni e sentimenti e ti toglie da questo mondo portandoti in un mondo evocato da questa estetica musicale. Uso come sottofondo per mie storie e poesie che scrivo e racconto e stranamente sembrano esattamente scritte per esse. La magia della creazione e dell'arte.

This shear wordless beauty touched my restless soul and spoke volumes. Thank you for stopping me in my tracks and pulling me back in with what i can only describe as love.

*listens to this* I WILL LEARN THIS *buys music sheets and sits at piano prepared* *presses one key* *fails* *criz*

Escuche esta canción por primera vez a traves de una señal satelite y me intrigo su nombre y autor.... me he encontrado un manantial de sonidos que parecen bajar del cielo para arrullarnos y colocarnos en un nivel de relax total... que maravilloso!!!

this is not just art it's something beyond that

Best song I've ever heard in my life.
