An alternative piano colour, recessed and unobtrusive. Based on the original open piano recordings of Max Richter’s Steinway Concert Grand, and processed via a curated chain of filters and EQs, the result is an already soft piano taken to the extreme - full of warmth and character, yet with very little brightness;  it’s a transparent sound designed to sit underneath.

About Studio Richter Mahr

Studio Richter Mahr was founded by Max alongside his partner, visual artist Yulia Mahr. 

Set in the English countryside in Oxfordshire, Max and Yulia built the multimedia production studio inside a former farmhouse and have powered it with cutting-edge solar and heat-pump technology. Located within 31 acres of woodland, the duo have a huge passion for using the land to farm and provide a sustainable working environment, serving as a space where both emerging and established creatives can come to develop their work.
