      Fearful Symmetries/The Wound-Dresser - John Adams

      Album Details

      Dive into the avant-garde world of minimalism with John Adams' captivating album, "Fearful Symmetries/The Wound-Dresser." Released in 2005 under the prestigious Nonesuch label, this album is a testament to Adams' unique compositional style, blending operatic elements with his signature minimalist approach. The album features two powerful works: "Fearful Symmetries," a piece that showcases Adams' ability to create intricate, symmetrical structures within his music, and "The Wound-Dresser," a deeply introspective piece based on Walt Whitman's poem of the same name, which was written during the American Civil War. The album's duration is a concise 47 minutes, packed with rich, layered compositions that will keep you engaged from start to finish. The performances are brought to life by the Orchestra of St. Luke's, with Sanford Sylvan delivering a stirring vocal performance in "The Wound-Dresser." This album is a perfect introduction to John Adams' groundbreaking work in the realm of contemporary classical music.
