Underwater

Underwater, Einaudi's first full solo piano album for 20 years, is a manifesto for life and a statement for this time when the world around him was quiet and silent. With 12 beautiful and intimate piano tracks featuring his trademark melodies, the album was written while Ludovico was isolated at his home in Italy, working without any distractions or the usual commitments that come with his busy schedule.
"A manifesto for life and a statement for this time when the world around was quiet and silent. The album is a place that is not our everyday life. It's a space to float without boundaries, to freely reflect. The title Underwater is a metaphor, it is an expression of a very fluid dimension, without inference from outside. The music came naturally, more than ever before. I felt a sense of freedom to abandon myself and to let the music flow in a different way. I didn't have a filter between me and what came out of the piano, it felt very pure." - Ludovico Einaudi
