His mother was an esteemed pianist, and as a teenager, Einaudi spent plenty of time playing classical guitar. However, Einaudi’s professional training in music started at the Conservatorio Verdi in Milan, Italy, from where he earned a diploma in composition in 1982. Einaudi also took private lessons in orchestration from the Italian Composer, Luciano Berio. Einaudi’s studies with Berio led to him winning a scholarship to the Tanglewood Music Festival, a move that proved crucial to his career. Subsequent to the Festival, Einaudi performed at other prestigious gatherings, including the Teatro alla Scala, the Lincoln Center, and the UCLA Center for Performing Arts, thus, boosting the strength of his repertoire whilst garnering international acclaim.
