Max Richter
Max Richter, one of the most influential and acclaimed composers of all time, illuminates the stage with his captivating contemporary classical music.
Max Richter’s fusion of classical technique and electronic technology, heard across genre-defining solo albums and countless scores for film, dance, art and fashion, has won him legions of fans around the world.
Over the last two decades, Richter has brought his distinctly humane and emotive sensibility to a series of ambitious projects – among them, a reimagining of Vivaldi’s violin concertos, the landmark nine-hour album Sleep and his score for Wayne McGregor’s ballet Woolf Works – along with acclaimed solo records tackling human rights, migration and the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
His ninth solo album, In a Landscape, is a fleeting self-portrait of a musician in constant motion. It is a record about ‘reconciling polarities’, as Richter puts it, bringing together the electronic and the acoustic, the human and the natural world, the big questions of life and the quiet pleasures of living.
