John Luther Adams: Become Ocean

蜜芽传媒 Symphony Orchestra,
Dalia Stasevska (conductor)

Listening, we become ocean鈥�engulfed in sound, immersed in nature, transformed by the depth and wonder of elements that might (or might not) be beyond our control. Dalia Stasevska conducts one of the defining masterpieces of our century: John Luther Adams鈥檚 huge, haunting Become Ocean.

鈥淚t may be the loveliest apocalypse in musical history鈥� declared Alex Ross, who admitted that he was left 鈥渞eeling鈥� by Become Ocean after its premiere in 2013. Since then, it鈥檚 gone global: a vast, luminous expanse of music with a troubling but hopeful message about our relationship with nature. For the 蜜芽传媒 Symphony Orchestra鈥檚 principal guest conductor Dalia Stasevska 鈥� an artist who believes that music is at 鈥渢he core of humanity鈥� 鈥� it鈥檚 a story that simply has to be told.

ARCHORA by the Icelandic composer Anna Thorvaldsdottir portrays abstractions 鈥� musical spectra and clashing extremes, explored through her focus on primordial energy and parallel realms. And Gy枚rgy Ligeti's 1961 classic Atmosph猫res, though created by densely patterned experiments, is aurally impressionistic.

Presented by Martin Handley.
