Max Richter - On the nature of daylight

[daughterhat]

I saw "If At All" by the Kibbutz Contemporary Dance Company, in Jerusalem a couple of weeks ago, and was introduced to some of Max Richter's music through that, which I am exploring further. This piece evokes the same mood as parts of the dance...which (I think) is about the potential in human relationships.

This bitter earth - remixed with Dinah Washington is also lovely.

This song almost makes me cry and shiver.

[debaser181]

absolutely incredible,

[mimivk]

4 people must be deaf.

[stratocaster1986able]

This is just incredible, such basic music melodies, some times simple is just better, because you get to hear the instrument in its purity, entirely stripped bare.

[josebarrazajr]

Story of my life....

[NacoProject]

haha, a dead fly

[KonstantinosPiano]

Whenever i hear this godly piece of music all my life instantly passes in front of my eyes....All my happy an sad moments.... :(

It's very strange how music can rout your inner self and melt it down in the process. To listen to something like this and not be aware of it's power it pretty much means you might have an ear problem or, which is worse, you are under such a pile of mud within that you will never be able to grasp the true meaning of that diaphanous state of mind when you feel that not everything is made of god damn cynical uselessness driven metaphorical stones.

[arvidtom]

Beautiful piece, but a bit derivative of Barber's Adagio for strings...

[22alesko]

@arvidtom Ya, I agree, but I think thats what makes it a good piece.

[arleitiss]

this song inspires me to write my history project. For a topic in project I picked Chernobyl. Kinda inspires me to write about.

[iskkarate]

[MusicianMonster]

I tried to put my vocals on this. It would be helpfull if you'd check it out and share your honest, constructive opinion.

[Lareon]

Simply put , Hauntingly Beautiful

[TheKryan]

This track was also used in the first dream scene in Shutter Island. Great composition. Music is so important in movies!

[kalninjsh]

yes, it is!

[ilovesummerxx]

Is this the music at the last scene of Shutter Island?

[Bonifratz]

Whoa. I love the Shutter Island soundtrack... it's pointed me to so many beautiful musical pieces that i didn't know before.

[JustBreath24]

@silbaar Music doesn't have to have any rhyme or reason... it has the ability to fill you up until there is nothing left. There doesn't have to be a reason, Ive never even watched this video and yet the sounds are so incredible I could cry. Just close your eyes and listen...stop trying to rationalize it.

[capoeirahataari]

Scorsese chose a great piece here to serve as a sort of tragic love theme for the film. I love how it blends SO well with the the first dream sequence.

[ra05xt]

does anyone know the other version woman sings along? does anyone have it!?!??! how can i find it?

[StephenW87]

"this bitter earth on the nature of daylight" just type that in and you'll find it. btw the woman singing is Dinah Washington

[Troya23]

The song you are refeering to is "This bitter Earth" by Dinah Washington

[scottmberst]

its on limewire or u can buy it on amazon for like a dollar

[FretArchitect]

So unbelievably beautiful

[dkelly26666]

This piece is in the new Martin Scorsese film, "Shutter Island".

[GIwillo]

@dkelly26666

yes.since i saw this great movie i always have to think about the holocaust when i hear this song.pretty sad.but the melody is just fine

[DEMONIPARADISO]

@dkelly26666 and what a horrid failure of a film that was! ugh, i'm sticking with reruns from now on-- tarkovsky, secret of nimh, etc.

[Haremma]

AMAZING! I love this track!

[PHOTOGARSABALL]

I'm crying.............

[Nordic7979]

[Sizonosizo]
