TEG DAINTY are thrilled to announce the highly-anticipated first-ever world tour of Max Richter – one of the most influential and acclaimed composers of all time. He will be performing a selection of his best-loved works from The Blue Notebooks and In A Landscape on stage alongside the American Contemporary Music Ensemble.
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 and blazed a trail for a generation of musicians.
Coinciding with the world tour Richter will release his ninth studio album In A Landscape in September 2024. The new album marks a significant evolution in Richter’s musical journey, as he delves deeper into the themes of optimism and human emotion accompanied by an innovative exploration of electronic sounds and field recordings. It is a record about reconciling polarities, bringing together the electronic and the acoustic, the human and the natural world, the big questions of life and the quiet pleasures of living – a fleeting self-portrait of a musician in constant motion.
In A Landscape employs homogenous musical language to Richter’s seminal album The Blue Notebooks, with the two albums in a way bookending this significant chapter of Richter’s life and career. It is presented as an open conversation with the audience, asking them to consider the dualities in their own life, what personal stories come to mind while listening and, ultimately, serving as an invitation to imagination.
