Congratulations to Leila Josefowicz, Minnesota Orchestra & maestro Thomas Søndergård with ‘Adès: The Exterminating Angel Symphony & Violin Concerto’ who were awarded 5 stars in The Times (UK Newspaper) with the review imploring one to ‘File this release under “sonic spectaculars”’
Further comments included: “First things first. The orchestral playing and the recorded sound are magnificent. In the album’s most spectacular track, a chain of grinding fortissimo chords march along through often surprising harmonic shifts, supported by a menacing side-drum tattoo, and the textural clarity is enough to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up.”
