Recomposed by Max Richter. Vivaldi, The four seasons: live from Berlin

Description

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.
