A lot of music is written for performers to perform physically demanding stunts. This music is usually horrible and should generally not have been composed in the first place. There is an entire branch of music appreciation devoted to the worship of these performers. To me, that whole thing is simply uninteresting and unworthy of further comment. So far as “complexity” in music goes. It is not an important aspect. Some music has a lot of variation, and it is good. Other music has very little variation, and is just as good. I can name great works in both regards. It’s a boring topic. [ Reply ]

hidey Dec 02, 2012 - 23:52	This is a beautiful piece of music. Comparison with the greats is an unfair but inevitable fate for any contemporary composer. Can any classical music not be derivative? [ Reply ]
midreaming Nov 01, 2012 - 15:52	at some point we should prol'y step back, take in the wider view of us all navel gazing with some of the critique. This ain't Debussy by a long shot. But as a mood maker, across the wider canvas that = RP, it adds. [ Reply ]

The messages was something like "Thanks to the Mom's" and only flashed products pix up at the end before they put the company name up. [ Reply ]

nicknt Apr 26, 2012 - 05:27	The statement "In the same category as Satie and Debussy" requires no further comment. It may be a question of taste, but art has its hierarchies. Einaudi will be soon forgotten, as he deserves. If I copy Mozart, I don't become ipso facto Mozart. fredriley wrote: It's a question of taste, and plainly Einaudi's not to yours, which is fair enough. He is in the same category as Satie and Debussy, and of course Philip Glass. Personalmente, penso che Einaudi sia i coglioni del cane (come dicono qua) :o) [ Reply ]

Blastcat900 Mar 25, 2012 - 12:01	Hope he does make a sound track to a movie... wait.. I'd better Google him... I've given this a 7 because its a bit simplistic. I'd love more sweeping orchestral background and space. I do arpeggios like that all the time. The theme is nice. By the end of the song, I felt I was in an elevator or Homesense. [ Reply ]
