A tribute to Max Richter’s cinematic soundscape

Join us for an evocative musical journey through the ambient world of Max Richter — one of the most influential contemporary composers of our time.

This specially curated programme blends movements from The Four Seasons Recomposed with some of Richter’s most moving and meditative works from film, ballet, and solo piano, performed by a chamber ensemble of 5 musicians.

From the haunting “On the Nature of Daylight” to the quiet intimacy of “Infra”, and the emotional climax of “Mercy”, this performance creates an immersive sonic experience — both introspective and transcendent.

🎹 Featuring solo piano works, intimate string textures, and iconic themes from “The Leftovers”, “Waltz with Bashir”, and “Infra”, the concert promises a contemplative and emotionally charged atmosphere.

This programme features a mixed selection from Max Richter’s works and includes movements from his celebrated recomposition of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons.

Classical pianist, Mauro Bertolino, comes to Bradford Cathedral all the way from Turin. Be enthralled as Mauro takes us on musical journey.

Mauro, born in Turin, obtained his diploma in piano at the G Verdi Conservatory and then went on to further study in Madrid, Saint Petersburg and London with Francois Joel Thollier, Michael Pletnev and Jacques Loussier. He regularly collaborates with the RAI National Symphony Orchestra and participates in many tours in Europe, America and Asia, where he plays under the direction of important conductors like Claudio Abbado, Riccardo Muti and Laurin Maazel.

He has written soundtracks for TV and performed in Italy's major theatres and across the globe. He is currently working on a new album including re-imaginings of the great classics. His main shows are "Forbidden Colours", a musical voyage that explores worlds that live beyond space and time and "Piano Fantasy", another showcase of Mauro's skill and virtuosity. It is from these two shows that Mauro will delight the audience at the Cathedral.

The bar will be open and you can delight in simply giving yourself up to Mauro's undeniable skill. He's a gentle giant and will guide us through his own impressive renditions of the very best of the piano classics and more. Tissues will be provided . . .
