Max Richter
Max Richter is one of the most influential composers of his generation. His 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 and blazed a trail for a generation of musicians.
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.
