Max Richter Ensemble

Max Richter Ensemble

LONDON Barbican, Silk Street, London, EC2Y 8DS

​Hailed as the most influential composer of his generation, Richter’s sound world blends a classical training with modern technology, with work including a series of acclaimed solo albums on FatCat and Deutsche Grammophon, concert and Ballet music, and scores for the award-winning films, including Waltz with Bashir and HBO’s The Leftovers.
On this tour, the Max Richter Ensemble will perform From Sleep, a new piece drawn from his eight-hour landmark work, described by Richter as his ‘personal lullaby for a frenetic world.’ The first half will feature a performance of The Blue Notebooks, which Pitchfork described as ‘a gigantic beacon for composers searching for ways to introduce dance music’s visceral qualities into the classical sphere.’ Don’t miss a special series of concerts from this leading contemporary artist.
