Automatic translation. Read the Russian original
On September 5, Deutsche Grammophon will release "Sleep Circle", a new 90-minute work by Max Richter dedicated to his 10-year work on the 8-hour epic "Sleep". This is a "hallucinogenic trip" into the liminal space between wakefulness and sleep, created on the basis of recycled fragments of "Sleep". The deluxe edition includes three records in the colors of "crown" and NFC-chip with bonuses.
Richter released one of the 24 tracks selected from Sleep Circle, based on his live performance experience over the past decade. Despite this, the composer plans to continue to perform full night performances of "Sleep" in the future, including two large-scale performances at Alexandra Palace (September 5 and 6), where users of the Sleep Pass app will receive priority ticket purchase rights.
