John Adams' music has long since captured the admiration of listeners for its inimitable American qualities. City Noir was inspired by the cultural and social history of Los Angeles, with Adams calling it 'an imaginary film score' in its evocation of a terse, melodramatic and menace-drenched sound world. Fearful Symmetries exemplifies Adams' steamroller motor rhythms, endlessly inventive in their shifts of timbre, texture and color. The album ends with a work dedicated to Marin Alsop, a capricious "Spider Dance" of memorable rhythmic drive.
