Description: | Composer, conductor and pianist Thomas Adès has been described by The New York Times as â??among the most accomplished all-round musicians of his generationâ??. His Concert Paraphrase on Powder Her Face reflects the glamour of the operaâ??s subject in the grand manner of Liszt or Busoni, while Still Sorrowing and Darknesse Visible explore John Dowlandâ??s haunting lute works. Heard here in its world premiere recording, competition piece Blanca Variations is lyrical and flowing in character, and Traced Overhead is a vivid description of ascent and flight. Adès captures and transforms Polish style in his Mazurkas, and the spirit of Satie and Ravel in a Souvenir from the film Colette. - HAN CHENComposer, conductor and pianist Thomas Ades has been described by The New York Times as 'among the most accomplished all-round musicians of his generation.'
