I regret that I have known about this guy for several years and have failed to post a link for you all to go check him out. Ludovico Einaudi is a popular contemporary Italian composer / pianist. I first heard his Due Tramonti (Two Sunsets) within a box set of hall of fame composers obtained through Classic FM, and later discovered that he has written many more wonderful pieces as well.
From his official site:
"The music of composer/pianist Ludovico Einaudi has been described as minimalist, classical, ambient, contemporary and deeply touching, the welcome sound of stillness in a hectic world. Week after week, his hauntingly beautiful and evocative music has kept him among the best-selling and most requested recording artists (in the UK and Italy in particular)."
