Max Richter - The New Four Seasons: Vivaldi Recomposed (Black 180g LP Vinyl)

A decade on from the release of his mesmerising Recomposed album, trailblazing composer Max Richter returns to the sound world of Vivaldi's Four Seasons. Recorded with violinist Elena Urioste and the musicians of Chineke! Orchestra, The New Four Seasons sees Richter create a new version of his Recomposed score for period instruments – using gut strings and vintage synthesisers to create a "grittier, more punk rock sound".

Richter's 2012 genre-defining album The Four Seasons - Vivaldi Recomposed topped the classical charts in 22 countries. The composer embarked on what he has referred to as "a personal salvage mission", taking a work he had once loved but which he felt had lost its impact through overexposure, weaving Vivaldi's musical DNA into something fresh and exciting.
