Classical
Max Richter
About This Event
Max Richter is a British composer and pianist whose work sits between postminimalism and contemporary classical, shaped by studies at the University of Edinburgh, the Royal Academy of Music and with Luciano Berio. He appears at NJPAC with the American Contemporary Music Ensemble, active since 1973; Richter’s writing favors clarity and atmosphere over display and is often presented in a process-driven, modern instrumental context.
