The Blue Notebooks

'The Blue Notebooks' from 2004 was Max Richter's second solo album a distinctive and adventurous work that is beautifully recorded and cinematic in scope Opening with a text from Franz Kafka over a sparse piano melody the album moves through heartwrenching strings of 'On The Nature Of Daylight' to lyrical piano pieces Using piano cello violin and viola alongside electronic beats made using a variety of antique electronics and Reaktor spoken word passages and the occasional field recording including a very realistic crow that you probably think comes from your garden other sounds were generated via old guitar pedals and vocoders LP 180 Gram Vinyl with Download
