Beethoven – Opus 2020 was commissioned by the Beethoven-Haus Bonn, birthplace of the composer and now a museum, cultural institution and research centre. It embodies Max Richter’s creative dialogue with the music of Beethoven. Andante Loops, a piece for solo piano, is derived from his Opus 2020 score and played by Max Richter himself. Opus 2020 also embraces the spirit of an earlier tribute piece, Karlheinz Stockhausen’s Opus 1970, made to mark Beethoven’s bicentenary fifty years ago. “When I started thinking about Opus 2020, I decided to bring some elements of Beethoven’s and Stockhausen’s practice into the present in new ways,” recalls Richter. “This intertextuality is typical of my work; whatever else a piece might be about, it is also, at some level, about other music.”
