Sleep is an eight-and-a-half hour concept album based around the neuroscience of sleep by German-British composer Max Richter. Sleep was conceived by Richter and his partner, the visual artist Yulia Mahr. It is targeted to fit a full night's rest. Richter talked with American neuroscientist David Eagleman while working on the album's piece to learn about how the brain functions during sleep. Richter structured Sleep as a large set of variations to echo Bach’s Goldberg Variations, which were supposedly written as a cure for the insomnia of the man who commissioned them.
