Max Richter Vivaldi, The Four Seasons (Recomposed By Max Richter ) ( vinyl 2LP )

Released: 25-04-2014(Originally released in 2012)

2014 German issue 180g vinyl 2LP  - Max Richters composition marks a new high . . . He has done far more than simply re-orchestrate the Vivaldi, going through the original score and plucking out his favorite musical ideas and dispensing with a great deal of the notes . . . The musicians were prepared to match him, playing in unison the dart-like repeated note values that often gave the work a distinctly minimalistic quality: here Vivaldi becomes systems music grounded by solid melody and a propulsive bass line. The result sounded a good deal . . .
