Max Richter is one of the most successful classical composers alive. His catalog has had more than 4 billion streams and his works range from an eight-hour album based on the science of sleep to the Oscar-nominated score for the film Hamnet.
Richter’s work often responds to political upheavals and current events. His new album, ‘While The Flood Rages’, derives from his score for a ballet inspired by Margaret Atwood‘s MaddAddam trilogy of books.
