    About This Event

    British composer and pianist Max Richter, trained at the University of Edinburgh and the Royal Academy of Music and who studied with Luciano Berio, performs at NJPAC. His work sits between postminimalism and contemporary classical music. Richter often frames orchestral and chamber forces with restrained repetition and a focus on clarity and atmosphere, a process-driven approach that will shape his NJPAC program.
