Max Richter - Recomposed // Vivaldi: The 4 Seasons (2LP Vinyl)

Violinist Daniel Hope is joined by the Konzerthaus Kammerorchester Berlin conducted by Andre de Ridder!

Following the success of Recomposed by Max Richter, Deutsche Grammophon releases Version 2 of the album. The second edition comes with new artwork in a stunning packing, and lots of new material, including brand new remixes and 'shadows'.

Max Richter 'conserved the elements of this piece...and 'taken moments'...and 'brought it into the 21st century' (from quote by violinist Daniel Hope).

Contemporary composer Max Richter re-imagines Vivaldi's timeless set of Baroque concertos, The Four Seasons featuring the Konzerthaus Kammerorchester Berlin conducted by Andre de Ridder with violinist Daniel Hope.

Deutsche Grammophon's Recomposed series features a strand of specially-commissioned albums revisiting classical works for contemporary listeners. Richter's Four Seasons preserves the elegant beauty of the originals, but subtly modifies them with unexpected cadences and delicate electronic touches.

SHADOWS - electronic soundscapes:
The album features 5 new tracks, so called "shadows which are electronic landscapes that were made for a live performance of the work with accompanying visual material made by the Danish game designers DarkMatters. He and Max developed these pieces to intercut with the written orchestral material, and to illuminate the abstract visual world of the images.
