Album insights
Max Richter's ninth studio album, 'In A Landscape,' represents a significant evolution in his musical journey, delving deeper into themes of optimism and human emotions. This album intertwines electronic sounds, field recordings, and a profound exploration of reconciling polarities: the electronic and acoustic, the human and natural realms, life's profound questions and its simple joys. It serves as a fleeting self-portrait, capturing a musician in constant motion. Through this music, Richter seeks to connect or reconcile opposing forces such as electronics with acoustic instruments, the natural world with the human realm, and life's grand ideas with the personal and intimate. This album is set to be released through Decca Records. Furthermore, Richter will kick off his first world tour in September, spanning four months and circling the globe, featuring performances of 'The Blue Notebooks,' which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year.
