Album Review
The creations of post-classical composers yield a treasure trove for the adventurous ear. John Adams, a West Coast composer, gives the world a wealth of new compositions through the San Francisco orchestra. His post-modern 1991 opera "The Death of Klinghoffer," a modern tale of terrorism, is one such work. The choruses from this modern tale of Middle East mayhem are as powerful as Verdi's mourning of the Jews in "Nabucco." The Nonesuch label brings these choruses with an equally haunting Adams work on "Harmonium/The Klinghoffer Choruses."
Customer Reviews
Magical and Full of Power!
I first stumbled on this recording after its recommendation in "1000 Recordings to Hear Before You Die." It is quite simply amazing, full of passion and color. Put this on during the next rainy day, sit back, and drink it all in.
