Contemporary British composer Max Richter has signed a partnership with Deutsche Grammophon. Composer, musician, producer, remixer … is a highly prolific musical artist and an eclectic one too. The exclusive new deal encompasses new works and collaborations, as well as the release in April on Deutsche Grammophon of his best-selling solo albums Infra, 24 Postcards in Full Colour, Songs from Before and The Blue Notebooks. In addition, a new recording of Richter’s much-praised orchestral work Memoryhouse will appear in September.
To celebrate the new partnership, Deutsche Grammophon will issue a new edition of Richter’s Vivaldi Recomposed, his reworking of The Four Seasons for violin, chamber orchestra and moog synthesizer.
