For the 2014 Free Thinking Festival, Matthew Sweet presents a special edition with composer Max Richter, writer of scores for Shutter Island, Waltz with Bashir and Sarah's Key.

Matthew Sweet presents a live edition from Radio 3's Free Thinking Festival of Ideas at Sage Gateshead with composer Max Richter, whose credits include music for "Shutter Island", "Waltz with Bashir" and "Sarah's Key".

Matthew explores Max's approach to writing for film and features scores from "Waltz with Bashir", "When We Leave", "Sarah's Key", "The Congress" and his music for the forthcoming "Testament of Youth", based on the life story of Vera Brittain. Max has chosen this week's classic score which is Vyacheslav Ovchinnikov's music for Tarkovsky's 1966 masterpiece, "Andrei Rublev".
