Seven Days Walking is a set of studio releases by Italian composer Ludovico Einaudi. The project consists of seven volumes of music due to be released over the course of seven months, beginning with the first volume, Seven Days Walking: Day One. Each episode is focused on several main themes, which are recurring in different form: seven variations following the same imaginary itinerary. Or the same itinerary, retraced in seven different moments. Seven Days Walking was recorded between September and October 2018 in Schloss Elmau (Germany) and Air Studios in London (England). The album features Einaudi on piano, Federico Mecozzi on violin and viola, and Redi Hasa on cello. “The idea first came to me as I was listening to the recordings of the first sessions: each version seemed to me to have its own personality, with subtleties so distinct from one another that I was unable to choose which I preferred. I associated everything with walking, with the experience of following the same routes over and over, discovering new details each time. And so in the end I decided to thread them all together in a sort of musical labyrinth, a little like stepping inside the twists and turns of the creative process, to understand how a musical idea can develop in multiple directions, and changing once again at the moment in which it is heard.” - Ludovico Einaudi
