Stephan Moccio on composing Wrecking Ball (Miley Cyrus) [English version]
1 Earned It  

Grammy and Oscar-nominated songwriter and composer Stephan Moccio has released a brand new solo piano version of ‘Earned It', a track he co-wrote and co-produced with The Weeknd for the 2015 blockbuster film Fifty Shades of Grey. It follows The Weeknd's performance of the song as part of his dazzling Super Bowl half-time show.

Moccio's music could also be heard in the pre-Super Bowl performance from Miley Cyrus, who gave an emotional rendition of ‘Wrecking Ball' – another song which he co-composed. 

The new single release follows Stephan Moccio's debut Decca Records album, Tales Of Solace, which was released last August. He has reached a staggering 100 million global streams since signing to the label less than a year ago.

    THE BIG ISSUE - CLAIRE JACKSON writes…..The piano’s insides were on display, just like the composer’s. The casing on the back of the upright had been removed so that the hammers were clearly visible. It gave the impression of work in progress; that we had stumbled into a maker’s workshop in the midst of a restoration project. In fact, contrary to appearances, the instrument was exactly how pianist-composer ...

    I first heard and fell in love with Stephan Moccio's piano music when he released his debut album, Exposure, back in 2006. It was one of my Favorite Albums for that year and I also named it one of the Best Albums of the Decade. Four years later, Color was released and was a combination of piano solos and piano with orchestration - I loved that one, too! Prior to that, and since then, Moccio has penned an...
