Second Ludovico Einaudi Concert Added to The Royal Conservatory's 2016-17 Season

The first concert by Ludovico Einaudi planned for the upcoming 2016-17 concert season at The Royal Conservatory has already sold out and today Mervon Mehta, Executive Director of Performing Arts, confirmed that a second concert by the popular musician has been added on Thursday, October 13, 2016. Tickets go on sale tomorrow, April 1 at 10:00am.

Known as a "pianist with Rock God tendencies" (Daily Telegraph), Einaudi's unique musical alchemy draws on elements of classical, rock, electronica, and world music. The Italian pianist and composer's music and performance have rendered traditional definitions of genre and audience obsolete, as he has become the first classical pianist to reach the top 15 in the UK album charts. He composed scores for a number of films and trailers, including The Untouchables, I'm Still Here, and the TV miniseries Doctor Zhivago.

The concert is presented in association with the Istituto Italiano di Cultura.
