Renowned composer Max Richter will release new album ‘In A Landscape’ on September 6th.
The musician has helped define the lexicon for modern classical music, with his immersive soundscapes inspiring countless other artists. Max Richter’s momentous ‘SLEEP’ is one of the most-streamed albums of all time, and epitomises his conceptual approach to creativity.
Inviting a conversation with the listener, the record fuses together different aspects of his work. Max Richter explains…
“For me, the music on the record is about connecting or reconciling polarities. The electronics with the acoustic instruments, the natural world with the human world, and the big ideas of life with the personal and intimate. This is a dynamic I started to explore in my 2004 record ‘The Blue Notebooks’, and the new project shares many of that album’s concerns; in a way this record is another look at the themes of the earlier work, but from the perspective of our world and our lives in 2024.”
New single ‘Movement, Before All Flowers’ is a beautiful introduction, embodying a unique sense of control. Every note is purposeful, marked by the kind of audio painting Max Richter has long since made his own.
Out now, the single comes with news of a full international tour, Max Richter’s first to date. Numerous UK headline shows are planned, including two nights at London’s Royal Festival Hall.
Tickets are available via fan presale from Tuesday (June 4th) at 10am local, with tickets then on general sale on Thursday (June 6th) at 10am local. Fans can access the pre-sale by pre-ordering a copy of ‘In A Landscape’ before 3pm BST on Monday 3rd June.
