The official piano sheet music to Ludovico Einaudi’s latest album, In a Time Lapse, is now available to pre-order now from Musicroom.com.
Recorded in the unique setting of a remote monastery in Verona, the album explores the concept of capturing emotions and experiences in a single moment in time.
This exclusive matching songbook includesall 14 tracks from the album, plus five bonus pieces, all arranged for solo piano.
In a Time Lapse is another landmark release by the pioneering Italian composer, breaking a digital sales record for a classical artist in its first week of sale. Over 70% of the album’s sales have come through digital downloads.
The previous classical album to approach such a ratio of digital sales was the composer’s own compilation Islands.
His latest release follows on from his previous best-sellers such as I Giorini, Una Mattina, Le Onde, Nightbook and Divinere in capturing the imaginations of fans both old and new, debuting at Number 1 in the Official Classical Albums Chart.
Speaking about the release of In a Time Lapse, and its record breaking digital sales, Martin Talbot of the Official Charts Company commented: “Einaudi’s impressive achievement is also a perfect illustration of the coming of age of digital classical music. Since we launched the Official Classical Singles Chart last spring, Ludovico Einaudi has been one of its biggest and most consistent stars.”
