Good-Shepherd Faith Church says…

Wordless Music explores the seam where contemporary and classical music meet, but this bill blurs the difference. German-born composer Max Richter's pedigree includes piano studies at the Royal Academy of Music in London, electronics tutelage under Luciano Berio in Florence, founding the contemporary classical ensemble Piano Circus, and composing for electronic group the Future Sound of London. Richter's own work catches up these various threads in elegiac, electronically embellished chamber music. His performance is accompanied by a string quartet and films by Matt Hulse. Minneapolis' Cepia knits electronic styles from ambient to drum 'n bass into the sort of experimental pop favored by his label, Ghostly International, and virtuoso pianist Assaff Weisman interprets works by Haydn and Messiaen.
