Vivaldi: The Four Seasons Recomposed By Max Richter – The Berlin Concert

Affection is an integral part of Max Richter’s Vivaldi Recomposed. His “post-classical idiom” draws inspiration from influences like electronic music, punk, club music, psychedelic rock. Max Richter’s co-conspirators are Daniel Hope, the British violinist; and the orchestra "l'arte del mondo" (artistic director is the violinist Werner Ehrhardt). A former member of the Beaux Arts Trio, Hope is both a notable champion of contemporary music and an exponent of the standard classical repertoire. That makes him the ideal soloist for Richter’s piece. (Cat.No. UNITEL: A055501640000)
