Max Richter concerts are all too rare in France. While the Fondation Louis Vuitton welcomed the German-British pianist, composer and arranger/producer on three occasions to coincide with the Mark Rothko exhibition, the Philharmonie de Paris has also decided to rectify the situation by opening its doors to the immense artist. The date is Saturday, November 16, 2024, in the Grande Salle Pierre Boulez, for a single performance.
For this exceptional date in Paris, Max Richter will be accompanied by his Ensemble, and will take the opportunity to unveil a new work to the Parisian public.
Max Richter is renowned for his many sublime compositions, including " November ", " On the nature of daylight " and " Mercy ".
The post-minimalist artist is also responsible for a host of famous film scores, including those for " Waltz with Bashir ", " Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots " and " Ad Astra ", as well as the series " The Leftovers " and " L'Amie prodigieuse ".
This autumn, the pianist and composer takes over the beautiful Grande Salle Pierre Boulez on November 16, 2024 for what promises to be a beautiful, dreamlike concert. Some may still remember his 2017 performance of "Sleep", an 8-hour piece to be listened to lying down!
This unique Max Richter concert at the Philharmonie de Paris is part of a special weekend dedicated to minimalist artists. After Max Richter on November 16, the beautiful Parisian venue nestled in the 19th arrondissement will welcome Vanessa Wagner for a piano recital the following day. On the same day, Salle Pierre Boulez will honor the works of Philip Glass with James McVinnie on organ and Maki Namekawa on piano.
