Composer Richter and artist Mahr met when they collaborated on a project more than 30 years ago. They now have three children and live in Oxford
or the composer Max Richter it was love at first sight when he spotted the visual artist Yulia Mahr at Edinburgh festival in 1988. She was performing in a play of the Mahabharata, and he was impressed by her talent and beauty. “There were only a few people there. I saw this woman acting and fell in love instantly,” he remembers. “Of course, I never thought I’d see her again, and she never saw me.”
As soon as they began working on the show together, their bond began to grow. “She was very smart and full of ideas,” says Max. “I felt immediately we had a shared sense of what was important in the world and what wasn’t. There was common ground in books, theatre and music as well.” Although there was clearly a spark between them, neither of them wanted to rush. “I had this calm sense of sureness that we could take our time,” says Yulia.
In 2008, they moved to Berlin, where they lived for eight years. “I’m from Hungary originally, and Max is originally from Germany. We wanted to go back and connect with our European roots,” says Yulia.

Voice to Parliament will ‘recognise’ Indigenous people in a constitutional firstPrime Minister Anthony Albanese says one part of the Voice to Parliament referendum is to “just recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in our constitution” due to the fact they have not yet been afforded recognition. 'Where matters directly impact Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, then the Voice would be consulted,” Mr Albanese told Woodford Folk Festival. “If there was a policy of support for Medicare, that’s for everyone, then that’s not about the Voice. “The constitution is our nation’s birth certificate and it should be a source of pride.”
