Moment magnitude scale being constants. For instance, formula_23 depends on rupture speed; it is close to 1 for regular earthquakes but much smaller for slower earthquakes such as tsunami earthquakes and slow earthquakes. Two earthquakes with identical formula_17 but different formula_23 or formula_22 would have radiated different formula_27. Because formula_27 and formula_17 are fundamentally independent properties of an earthquake source, and since formula_27 can now be computed more directly and robustly than in the 1970s, introducing a separate magnitude associated to radiated energy was warranted. Choy and Boatwright defined in 1995 the "energy magnitude" where formula_27 is in J (N·m). Assuming the values
Recomposed by Max Richter: Vivaldi – The Four Seasons Recomposed by Max Richter: Vivaldi – The Four Seasons Recomposed by Max Richter: Vivaldi – The Four Seasons is the 2012 album by neo-classical composer Max Richter, released on August 31, 2012 on Universal Classics and Jazz (Germany), a division of Universal Music Group, and Deutsche Grammophon. The album is a complete recomposition and reinterpretation of Vivaldi's "The Four Seasons". Although Richter said that he had discarded 75% of Vivaldi's original material, the parts he does use are phased and looped, emphasising his grounding in postmodern and minimalist music. The album was composed by Max Richter, played by the violinist
