John Adams - Orchestral Music



One reason critic Alex Ross finds John Adams' music so appealing is that the composer doesn't shy away from emotion.

"The emotional thing is very important, I think," Ross says. "There's no caution there. There's no sort of intellectual jockeying for position. He just seems to just put it out there and not worry about the correctness of these sounds. They just kind of well up in him, and he's just not afraid to put them down on paper."
