Adams: American Berserk

GRUBER HESS BROCKMANN HABLITZEL STOCKHAUSEN GROSCHOPP

John Adams writes: "My music is very American in the sense that is very pulse-driven. I think the Central European tradition is really one of lyricism and expressiveness. Of course, there is a lot of elasticity in phrasing and tempo in the music of Mahler, for example. But to sort of get into the groove, what we say in the USA “in the pocket,” and stay there and at the same time constantly shift the accent of the pulse is something..." American Berserk, the new release from John Adams, features a cast of able players, including Liviu Neagu-Gruber, Axel Hess, Jens Brockmann, Michael Hablitzel, Majella Stockhausen, and Holger Groschopp.
