Just a Moment

This young woman is an amazing composer. I have been trying to find female composers for the piano that I like. It is really frustrating because all of the composers that I love are male and I can’t find any women that I like. Of course there is Tori Amos and Nina Simone… but their stuff is a little difficult for a beginner like me. The only place I have been able to find brilliant female composers for piano is on youtube. Why aren’t women like this as famous as Einaudi, Cacciapaglia, Tiersen ect? They are certainly good enough to rival them.

Figlia Del Cielo

I’ve fallen in love with this song by Roberto Cacciapaglia. Kinda surprised that a guy wrote it but it is beautiful nonetheless. I can’t stop listening to it.

Lyrics in Italian with a crappy google translation in English:

Giorni notti
Buio luce
Notti albe
Danza senza fine
Aspetta ancora
Resta qui mentre
Sorge l’aurora
Rinasce il mondo
col primo sole
Appare lei
E risponde
Pi? bella che mai
Non ha confini
Figlia del cielo
Aspetta ancora
Resta qui
Mentre sorge l’aurora
Rinasce il mondo
col primo sole
Appare lei
E risponde
Pi? bella che mai
Non ha confini
Figlia del cielo

Days nights
Dark light
Night dawns
Dances without end
Still waiting
Stay here
While the dawn rises
The world is reborn
With the first sun
She appears
And she answers
More beautiful than ever
No boundaries
Daughter of the sky
Still waiting
Stay here
As the dawn rises
The world is reborn
With the first sun
She appears
And she answers
More beautiful than ever
No boundaries
Daughter of the sky
