London Sinfonietta

London Sinfonietta

Work:: London Sinfonietta (S352853617)


Production:: (T0608612682)

John Adams is reunited with the London Sinfonietta for the UK premiere of his critically acclaimed 'sequel' to the 1993 Chamber Symphony (memorably recorded by the composer and the ensemble). Son of Chamber Symphony is another work full of typically Adams-esque acrobatics, whimsical melodies and driving rhythms. A tireless advocate for his colleagues, Adams brings with him the music of compatriots from both West and East Coasts; Paul Dresher's music has been described as 'chamber music with a clang', David Lang is refreshingly no-nonsense in a work about what we're all really like. Dance music by John Cage completes the programme.
Conductor John Adams
Performer Clio Gould (violin)
