“This two-disc summary of Adès's career avoids some of the more obvious works – nothing from The Tempest, for instance – but manages to include both his youngest work and some recent, hitherto unrecorded pieces...[Chamber Symphony] is powerfully suggestive of an imagination bursting to be heard.” The Independent, 30th September 2011 *****

“this is essential Adès, impeccably performed, for those wanting to survey the oeuvre in all its quixotic variety.” The Observer, 25th September 2011

The music of Thomas Adès taps into the spirit of our restless times with unquiet brilliance and an uncompromising vigour evident throughout this survey of works written in the 1990s. From the wild ‘orchestration’ of a Madness song (Cardiac Arrest) to his alarmingly prescient vision of a country laid waste (America), via French Baroque manners (Les Baricades Misterieuses) and a diatribe against a grand old man (Brahms), Adès is ever his own man.
