We are offering guests with tickets for the evening's performance in the Barbican Hall, a chance to join Max Richter, star violinist Daniel Hope and maverick conductor André de Ridder in an exclusive pre-concert talk about Richter’s latest album for Deutsche Grammophon, Vivaldi Recomposed and the nitty-gritty of contemporary classical music.
The talk will be hosted by Ben Eshmade.
Tickets are limited so please book in advance by calling the Box Office on 0845 121 6823.
Contemporary composer Max Richter re-imagines Vivaldi’s timeless set of Baroque concertos, The Four Seasons , featuring Britten Sinfonia conducted by André de Ridder with violinist Daniel Hope, and also performs a special set including music from his most recent album, Infra.
Released in the UK in October 2012 as part of Deutsche Grammophon's Recomposed series – 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.
Produced by the Barbican
