Ludovico Einaudi - Nuvole Bianche

Nuvole Bianche... in English "White Clouds", the title fits Ludovico's composition so well, tranquil, calm, effortless, floating. Ludovico receives a lot of negativity from the classical world due to his simplicity, though I think the simplicity of his work is also the beauty of his work. It's not trying too hard to evoke complex emotions or challenge audiences, it's creating a canvas for you to get lost in your own thoughts, and I think everyone needs a little bit of that sometimes. Hope you have an excellent Monday.

I love this song so much, but I can’t listen to it for more than a couple seconds before I start crying. I’m 15 now, but when I was 11 I remember my mother would play this piece and it was always my favorite. Unfortunately, for my 12th birthday my parents were on their way home buying an old record player for my birthday when they were both struck and killed by a drunk driver. Hearing this song gives me a feeling that my parents are sitting by me and my mother is playing this song. It’s amazing how powerful music is the bring back such vivid memories. I love this song so much and it bring me great memories, but also memories of my 12th birthday. The record player by parents got me survived the crash. Besides a crack on the top right and the lid broke off it still works. I haven’t been able to find a vinyl copy of this song, but if anyone can find one please let me know. I want it so my parents in heaven can see how much i appreciate them, their gift, and how much I love them. I pray for them everyday and hope they are listening. I even pray for the man that hit them because I couldn’t imagine how hard it is for him to live with himself after what he did. If I could ever be able to talk to him I would forgive him and I’m sure my parents would look down and support me because my parents always told me “Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future”. I didn’t really expect to write all this in a youtube comment, but I guess there’s my story.

I learned to play this by breaking it down into sections and drilling one section a day for several hours, or until I was confident. * Here's my method: * Section 1 = 0:03 - 0:32 Section 2 = 0:33 - 0:56 Section 3 = 0:57 - 1:21 Section 4 = 1:22 - 1:47 Section 5 = 1:48 - 2:14 Section 6 = 2:15 - 2:59 Section 7 = 3:00 - 3:28 Repeat sections 1 - 7 (Finale) Section 8 = 5:42 - 6:17 I really hope this helps someone! Good luck!

My 14 year old daughter selected this song for a recent recital performance and I don’t think I’ve ever been more moved to hear her play such a beautiful piece. This song is life and I never want to forget the feelings that came over me as I listened to her practice and eventually play for a church full of people. Many were brought to tears, including me. So grateful for the gift of music. ❤

it's so crazy how music with no words can be so impactful. No joke when I hear this, I start to tear up lol for no reason, and I just can't help it.

I was thinking that I could play this at a concert, but I also was thinking about how many times I would pause, and people would clap because they’re thinking it’s over.

I played this song for my family before I left for college. I'm so glad I did. I have never seen my mother so proud. Thank you for sharing this beautiful music.

My Mother played this song on our piano throughout my entire upbringing. Hearing it again after so long brings a tear to my eye 🥹

"Don't cry because it's over,smile because it happened"-Some wise fella <3

this is the most wholesome comment section i've ever seen. congladurations all.

I've been practicing and playing this song for 2 years, never managed to finish this. 2 days ago my dad passed away. Heavy alcoholic. I always knew he loved hearing me play this, and I'll play the entire thing for him one day.

I started self learning the piano a month ago at 23 years I will try to learn this one day. Makes me feel nostalgic and peaceful at the same time

This should be in the top 3 of 'Songs you invented in your dreams but seems to exist in real life'.

My favourite thing about this song are the pauses. More specifically, the great relief when you realize that the song goes on and it was only a pause, not the end

People dont realise how perfect this song is. .....

Five years ago, Some of us didn't know that they would not be here today. If you are still alive, it's no luck, it's a special blessing ❤😊

“Life is like a piano; the white keys represent happiness and the black show sadness. But as you go through life's journey, remember that the black keys also create music.”

Everybody wants to be someone's Sun, To brighten up their day. But why not be someone's Moon, To lighten up their darkest hour ?

It’s about finding safety within you Without searching for it on the outside Within you where it’s eternal ❤ Nothing, no one, can take it away I wish you well✨

It's easy to play without emotion but ten times harder to play with feeling. You playing this song with so much feeling and passion it is a wonderful gift that not everybody has, so thank you for sharing.❤
