ALBUM DESCRIPTION
The Anglo-German pianist and composer delivers the second volume of his audiovisual project Voices, launched in 2020 with visual artist and director Yulia Mahr, who has been collaborating with Richter for the past 25 years. The concept of Voices, based on the aspirations of the Declaration of Human Rights, is eminently political, but its message is non-verbal: Voices contains no voices. It is through music that Max Richter tries to set the world to rights, introducing serenity and benevolence, as well as a whole procession of positive emotions in long tracks which move between ambient and neoclassical music. As a student of Brian Eno, one of his acknowledged references, Max Richter has built a series of absolutely fascinating meditative tracks, almost more therapeutic than musical, as if he had found the frequency of peace. Yulia Mahr is unambiguous: “For all its challenges, this moment also offers us an opportunity to build anew; rather than just restarting the old world, we can invent a new one. If we come together, we can create a kinder world.” Let's start by listening to this record. © Smaël Bouaici/Qobuz
