Recomposé par Max Richter : Vivaldi, Les Quatre Saisons
❗️Important: Max Richter is not taking part in the concert
Join us at the Kensington United Reformed Church located in the heart of Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea on February 21st for an evening showcasing Antonio Vivaldi’s famous cycle, «The Four Seasons,» in a unique interpretation by contemporary composer Max Richter, performed an intimate church setting lightened by a flicker of hundreds of candles.
Max Richter is the composer of music for dozens of feature films and documentaries. The European Film Academy voted him the best film composer in 2008.
He changed the music of Antonio Vivaldi in the spirit of minimalism and postmodernism. Recomposed by Max Richter: Vivaldi, The Four Seasons is one of Richter’s most famous works. After its release in 2012, the recording topped the iTunes Classical Music charts in over 20 countries.
Max Richter has recorded 12 solo albums and performed at the London Barbican, the Paris Philharmonic, the Sydney Opera and the Amsterdam Concertgebouw, and among his projects are the Sum Opera and the Infra ballet (choreographed by Wayne McGregor) at Covent Garden. Richter’s music is heard in many performances around the world, as well as in the films «Shutter Island» by Martin Scorsese, «Last Love on Earth» by David Mackenzie, «Waltz with Bashir», for the soundtrack to which he received the award «Best Composer» from the European Film Academy.
The Four Seasons by Antonio Vivaldi is one of the most famous and frequently performed works of classical music. The Italian master wittily and gracefully captured in music the way his contemporaries saw the world and nature. The Vivaldi cycle is both a philosophical reflection of a magnificently illustrated «calendar» and a «sightseeing tour» of the regions of Italy.
