Max Richter In Concert - Earth Day 2023

Join world-renowned composer Max Richter, star violinist Elena Urioste and Chineke! Orchestra for a special performance marking Earth Day. Recorded live earlier today in East London's Ecology Pavilion, nestled among the lakes and reed beds of Mile End Park, this event is a celebration of the natural world and a call to arms for listeners to protect our planet.

The setlist contains three of Richter's most celebrated works. Elena Urioste is the soloist in Recomposed: Vivaldi - The Four Seasons, Richter's electro-acoustic reimagining of the famous Baroque violin concerti that depict the natural world. Meanwhile Infra and On the Nature of Daylight are both deeply moving and contemplative pieces of music.

Linton Stephens presents the concert on BBC Radio 3, which is also available on BBC Sounds globally and on radio around the world via more than 20 European Broadcasting Union radio stations.
