Max Richter+ MAX RICHTER Opus 2020 PHILIP GLASS Company JOHN ADAMS The Chairman Dances MAX RICHTER Recomposed: Vivaldi – The Four Seasons* David Brophy conductor Mari Samuelsen violin/director* Chris Ekers sound Few composers have reshaped contemporary classical music like Max Richter. His work blends minimalism, electronica and cinematic sound to create music that feels both intimate and expansive. This programme opens with Richter’s Opus 2020 , a reflective piece shaped by themes of memory and time. Glass’s Company follows with clear textures and pulsing rhythms, before Adams’ The Chairman Dances brings lively, jazz inflected energy. The concert ends with Richter’s Recomposed: Vivaldi – The Four Seasons , a fresh reimagining of the original. Mari Samuelsen leads the performance with vivid, expressive insight.

Not the same tradition as the lineage above — a genuinely different thread to pull, if you want one.
