Max Richter: From Sleep (CD Review)
Max Richter, piano, organ, synthesizers, electronics; American Contemporary Music Ensemble (Ben Russell, Yuki Numata Resnick, violin; Caleb Burhans, viola; Clarice Jensen, Brian Snow, cello; Grace Davidson, soprano). Deutsche Grammophon 479 5258. By Karl. W. NehringMax Richter (b. 1966) is a leading figure among composers working to bring together elements of what we generally consider "classical" music and more contemporary instrumentation and styles of music. For those who follow current classical trends, Richter's most well known composition is probably his reworking of Vivaldi's Four Seasons, released by DG in 2012 and picked up by various classical outlets around the world. It may have not been a "big hit," but it sold well and brought increased attention to the German-born British composer who is now based in London. But his most notorious composition is undoubtedly Sleep, an 8-hour magnum opus from 2015 that was released as a boxed set comprising eight CDs plus […]

Takasugi’s Freaky, Meaningful Sideshow
[…] Its freakishness and dehumanization are unspeakably personal and —not soon to be forgotten. The absolutely absorbing performance by Talea cannot be over-praised. Their vacant stares, their every variant toot, pluck and gulp coming with raw force, fully intensified Takasugi’s electroacoustic neo-expressionistic music-play. Have they recovered? Have I? Talea Ensemble members are: David Adamcyk, electronics, Barry Crawford, flute, Stephen Gosling, piano, Chris Gross, cello, Alex Lipowski, percussion and vocals, Rane Moore, clarinet, Ryan Muncy, saxophone, Yuki Numata Resnick, violin, Beth Weisser, viola. Takasugi is the Rieman and Baketel Fellow for Music, Radcliffe Institute and associate, Department of Music, Harvard University. David Patterson, Professor of Music and former chairman of the Performing Arts Department at UMass Boston, was recipient of a Fulbright Scholar Award and the Chancellor’s Distinction in Teaching Award. He studied with Nadia Boulanger and Olivier Messiaen in Paris and holds a PhD from Harvard University. He is the author […]

Mar. 25 Max Richter: The Leftovers and Infra
[…] HBO series, The Leftovers. Richter also composed the music for Sarah’s Key and Shutter Island — in addition to the track Mercy on Hilary Hahn’s Grammy award-winning album, In 27 Pieces: The Hilary Hahn Encores. The American Contemporary Music Ensemble (ACME) is a young and critically-acclaimed chamber ensemble specializing in the music of 20th– and 21st-century American composers. The group has 11 regular members, and Wednesday evening’s performance featured violinists Ben Russell, Caleb Burhans, Yuki Numata Resnick; and cellist and artistic director, Clarice Jensen. The musicians played exquisitely — both individually and as an ensemble. Max Richter (photo: Geraldine Petrovic) The first set of the evening opened with Richter’s score for The Leftovers, which began with a thunderous bass drum and a foreboding drone (think Hans Zimmer’s soundtrack for Inception or The Dark Knight Rises), created by a synthesizer that Richter operated from his laptop. The drum gradually […]
