Hi Ashat,
I don't want to discourage you, but I think you should try a diferent overview. I agree that Einaudi is a great composer, but in my opinion he is not "great" for being a starting point. I'm "self re-learning" too (since Decembre 2009 - almost 1 year!) and I practice for about 1h/2h everyday. Just to share that ONLY this week I started to study "La Nascita Delle Cose Segrete"; just because I fell I'm ready for it. Only now.
I don't know your talent, or your musical background, but you should add some confidence before studing Einaudi. He is a great composer/interpreter and it's not easy to reach is level of "sound".
As I said, I don't want to discourage you, I just wanted to share my opinion.
Good work!

Finished learning I giorni - god it's beautiful. Now I just need to
polish up the sections since getting as good red-dot take isn't going to be easy with little jumps and 10ths at the end.

Less than 1wk to go till San Francisco! The stage itself is rather small'sh so even though I'm on the right hand side I'm hoping I'll still be able to see the keys, we'll see..

I've really got to set aside some time so I can get the first 3 pieces I've learned of Einaudi up on the "The Tube"

Thanks for the kind offer..

I did meet him in Santa Monica (got a pic too!) I would simply like to say "thank your for a moving performance" or something along those lines..

As for pronunciation you can use this site

(A curiosity about the picture: What Einaudi has in his left hand?)

A.

Thanks - I also use Google Translator sometimes also. As for what Einaudi is holding it's a pen (for signing) and the bottom part of the white'sh reflection is actually a ladies shoe stood behind him..

Tomorrow night he is performing at the Arvada Center. My tickets are at will call.

Hi Carlos,
thanks for your message and suggestion.(...)
I want to complete at least one of these three.
To be honest memory and high concentration for more than 2 or 3 minutes are the major obstacles at the moment(...)

Oh boy! I finally got around to getting my hotel for next Saturday. Priceline accepted my offer of $75 for a 4-star hotel, and I'm at the Pfister, which (I believe) is right across the street from the performing arts center.

can't wait can't wait can't wait.

Yup yup yup! And AnthonyB will be there, too! Maybe we could get together either right before or after for a PW meet-up.

Leaving now for San Francisco! Will report back tomorrow on how it went - can't wait!! I mean to see him twice in one year is pretty sweet. Just hope he comes back next year, maybe then we'll travel to MW to meet up with the other "Einaudites"

Cheerio
