Max Richter shares news on updated Recomposed album

The artist celebrates the 10th anniversary of Recomposed by Max Richter: Vivaldi – The Four Seasons with the new version.

Recorded with violinist Elena Urioste and the musicians of Chineke! Orchestra, The New Four Seasons features unexpected (at least, from Vivaldi’s standpoint) instruments. Using gut strings and vintage synthesisers, Richter creates a “grittier, more punk rock sound”.

Released today, Spring 1 is the first track that gives a hint at the sonic concept of the new version. The composition is available for listening on all streaming platforms.

The new album will be released by Deutsche Grammophon on 10 June 2022.
