A unique multimedia concert will take place on October 19 at 20:00 at the fantastically atmospheric Nizami Cinema Center in the heart of Baku. Famous hits and new masterpieces by the main neoclassicist of the planet Ludovico Einaudi from the latest album "Underwater" will be accompanied by a beautiful video sequence on the big screen performed by the popular Mystery Ensemble orchestra — the main multimedia premiere of autumn 2024, which cannot be missed!
 
Thanks to the virtuosity of the musicians and the latest technologies, you will instantly find yourself inside the magical Einaudi universe, where tranquility, harmony and peace reign.

Ludovico's life-affirming and poignant melodies are heard in the cult films "1 + 1", the Oscar winner "Land of Nomads", "Black Swan" by Darren Aronofsky, "Mommy" by Xavier Dolan.

The renowned Italian composer released the album ’Underwater’ in January 2022. This is his first solo project in 20 years, which gradually took shape during the 2020 lockdown.
Every day, Ludovico sat down at the piano, and ideas emerged spontaneously, as if from an external source. Over months of improvisation, he noticed that every four to five days, he would compose a melody or motif—a sketch that would later take its final form. During the process, Einaudi reflected on life in isolation as a parallel dimension. According to the composer, the new material seemed to write itself: «Everything happened naturally like never before. I felt a sense of freedom, discarded the rules, and the music flowed differently. There was no filter between me and the piano sounds; everything was genuine. The title "Underwater" is a metaphor for a fluid dimension unaffected by the external world».

The ethereal atmosphere of "Underwater" is largely due to its subdued sound. The composer achieved this by covering each hammer of the Steinway piano with an additional layer of felt.

The mesmerizing combination of music performed by the Mystery Ensemble and the chamber atmosphere of the hall will make the evening unforgettable.
