I am not sure what to get from this … hopefully it is fun for the musicians to play.
I agree...This is absolutely mesmerising and uniquely brilliant. In the 3rd movement ther cello players face as he grins almost like he's keeping on as he knows the end is close like the players on the titanic or the 51st battalion' By the 4th movement you are practically snake-charmed so much by the billions of beautiful descents that your peristalsis almost starts working in reverse. This is so lyrical and memorable and yet still challenging and hold in you're attention for the entire piece. Wow. Im amazed im still so amazed by a piece of music and how its can give me feelings or paint pictures that I can barley imagine myself. Thanks to all involved in bring this to us!
I find Ades to be a wildly uneven composer. This is one of his better efforts.
18:35 is crazy
