Fly With Confidence
Le Onde – Ludovico Einaudi
5 September 2017
This is a track I’m particularly fond to. In fact, it’s the first encounter I had with modern classical music… and it was my wife, that made me discover it. We passed hours sharing earphones, keeping our hands tight and listening to it. Since that day, my musical life changed. The notes were touching my soul so deeply that I decided to get more into it, and I started my classical piano composing experience.
Dismissed – Michele McLaughlin

An amazing game between the tones of a tender waltz and a dark ostinato. When I listen to this tune, I imagine a couple starting to dance in a very romantic way… and getting swept away from passion. A seduction game. Pure passion.
Married Life (From “Up”) – Michael Giachino
21 August 2017
Does really exists some words that can describe this wonderful composition? In just 4 minutes, can tell the whole story of the real love. The happiest and the saddest moments we all, in our life, face. So, fly away with this super melody.
Following a Bird (Unconditioned) – Ezio Bosso
15 August 2017
When I listen to this track, I imagine myself sitting in front of a window, being hypnotized by the movement of a little sparrow searching for food… and suddenly flying away. I continue to follow his flight as far as I can see it. This brings me in a totally relaxed mood.
Ambre – Nils Frahm
7 August 2017
A soft enchanting, melancholic piano melody, similar to poetry that takes control of your feelings and makes you think about your childhood.
Pilgrims On a Long Journey – Coeur De Pirate
1 August 2017
This week I decided to move a little bit outside the “solo piano” boundaries of the playlist, because I find that the use of strings in this piece is simply essential and in the same time necessary to evoke your inner and deep feelings. Many of you probably will know this track as it’s been used as soundtrack for an amazing fantasy video game called “Child of Light”.
The Arctic Light – Marika Takeuchi
24 July 2017
An easy melody that pervades your mind and reassures you if you’re frightened. Or simply keeps your mind relaxed if you are not 😀 Perfect tune to listen while you’re above the clouds… following them with your eyes.
Dismantle – Peter Sandberg
18 July 2017
WOW, this is a perfect track to keep your mind away from the anxiety and the fears about flying. This piano solo song is able to caress your soul, driving you in a place surrounded by light and comfortable feelings.
Prèlude – Alexandra Streliski
11 July 2017
Optimistic mood, with a note of melancholy. A haunting melody, never mundane rhythmic statements, and some chord variations make this track the perfect travel buddy to fly with.
Haunted Past – Philip Wesley
4 July 2017
Close your eyes, let this wonderful music flow through your feelings. Let the notes take your soul and feel as when you were a child, listening to the lullaby to fall asleep.
Weightless – Neil Cowley Trio
27 June 2017
We don’t allow more than two tracks from any one artist on these playlists but I’m thinking of making an exception for the Neil Cowley Trio ‘cos well, they’re just bloody great! I remember falling in love with this track last week and it sounds even better on the 6th or 7th listen – and the video’s pretty rad too.
The City and the Stars – Reimagined – Neil Cowley Trio
21 June 2017
I always had a vision for this playlist where the music would take you out from the terror of turbulence and drop you into the cool ethereal place that exists above the clouds – this is the kind of music they play up there!
