Max Richter announces his ninth studio album, In A Landscape
Max Richter has announced his ninth studio album, In A Landscape, alongside news of his first ever world tour.
“For me, the music on the record is about connecting or reconciling polarities," Richter says. "The electronics with the acoustic instruments, the natural world with the human world, and the big ideas of life with the personal and intimate. This is a dynamic I started to explore in my 2004 record The Blue Notebooks, and the new project shares many of that album’s concerns; in a way this record is another look at the themes of the earlier work, but from the perspective of our world and our lives in 2024."
In A Landscape is Richter’s first solo album recorded at Studio Richter Mahr, the minimalist, eco conscious creative retreat designed and operated by Richter and his wife, visual artist Yulia Mahr.
His first ever world tour will see Richter play across the United Kingdom, Europe, North America, Canada, Australia and Asia throughout 2024 and 2025, including shows at London’s Royal Festival Hall on 8 and 9 November 2024, as well as the Royal Opera House in Sydney, and Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles in 2025.
In A Landscape will be released on 6 September. Tickets for his tour are available via fan pre-sale from 4 June at 10am local, with tickets then on general sale on 6 June. For more information, visit maxrichtermusic.com.
