Just a quick blog about this fantastic new Album from Max Richter, my expertise lies in the Plastic arts so I am not going to go into music reviews. Max Richter for me has always signified how powerful art can be, his compassion's range from the orchestra to the electronic often with a bit of spoken word. I remember a few years back while house sitting for my parents having his music on while watering their garden early in the morning. The setting was so tranquil and with the combination of back to earth activity and Max Richter I felt completely transported beyond myself. I truly believe all sorts of art form have this power and some times you need to let them take you over, let the art really effect how you are feeling.

I have only just come across this album today via Culture Critic (worth subscribing to there e-mails or following on Twitter) stand alone, again I feel transported but after reading the back story (on link above) and researching you find this amazing story of these different strands of art coming together from the music of Max Richter to the Ballet of Wayne McGregor, all set below (Infra) some of Julian Opie's art. It looks amazing see below.
The last notable thing to notice about this is the connection to T.S Eliot's 'The Waste Land', this reference seem to have been coming up for me a lot of late. I have taken this as a sign and bought the album.
Enjoy,
Nathan
