Eliot, with ingenuities unobtrusively tucked away into the composition. At the close of New Hampshire the piano sings in counterpoint Do you want the stars to play with, the moon to run away with? Rannoch explores chromatic scale descents as inventively as Verdi explored an enigmatic scale in his Ave Maria. They underpin, without jeopardizing, his spontaneous response to Eliot's lines. Cape Ann, bearing an Hommage à Messiaen dedication, rings with the birdsongs evoked in the poem. ","brand":"Alfred Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44598448717960,"sku":"12-0571519814","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0697\/6104\/0520\/files\/12-0571519814_large_e13a84a4-a08c-48c6-b81b-75fd2c0e4a59.jpg?v=1779255383"},{"product_id":"the-exterminating-angel-12-0571539696","title":"The Exterminating Angel: Vocal Libretto","description":"Adès's third opera, \u003ci\u003eThe Exterminating Angel\u003c\/i\u003e, premiered at the Salzburg Festival in July 2016. Based on Luis Buñuel's surrealist classic \u003ci\u003eEl ángel exterminador\u003c\/i\u003e, the opera sees a collection of society's grandees inexplicably trapped in a room. The libretto, adapted from the original Buñuel-Alcoriza screenplay by the composer together with the director Tom Cairns, brilliantly captures their descent into anarchy. Featuring a jaw-dropping 15 principals (who remain on stage for the majority of the piece), \u003ci\u003eThe Exterminating Angel\u003c\/i\u003e is a true ensemble opera, and the skill with which Adès delineates the many intricacies and undercurrents present over its densely packed span (just under two hours plus interval) is breathtaking.
