The John Adams Album
Kent Nagano has long been a champion of the music of John Adams, and on this album he interprets three of Adams's major orchestral works with the Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal. Common Tones in Simple Time (1979) was Adams's very first orchestral work, an early example of minimalism for full orchestra. Short Ride in a Fast Machine (1986) is a hugely popular orchestral fanfare, and Harmonielehre (1985) is a colourful, symphonic modern classic.
