A German-born British composer-pianist, Max Richter is one of the most in-demand voices in modern post-minimalist classical music—and he’s finally playing his first concert in Hungary. Beyond the stage, he’s known for ballet, opera, and Grammy-nominated film scores, plus a long list of cross-disciplinary collaborations that have made his work a gateway for new classical listeners.
World Tour Lands in Budapest (Budapest)
He arrives in Budapest (Budapest) on his first world tour with material from In a Landscape, released in 2024. The album extends the emotional and philosophical threads of his second record, the 2004 classic The Blue Notebooks, creating a dialogue between past and present in his catalog.
What to Expect on the Night
Both works will be performed in a special live arrangement for string quintet and narrator on March 9, weaving spoken word into Richter’s luminous harmonies and meditative patterns. Expect a set that moves from intimate piano textures to sweeping ensemble passages, anchored by his unmistakable, slow-blooming lyricism.
