JOHN ADAMS (b.1947): Phrygian Gates, American Berserk, China Gates, Hallelujah Junction.

Description: Adams' complete piano works, from the minimalist pair of Gates (1977-78) via the jazz and pop-inflected Junction of 1996 to the 2001 Berserk which recalls the fractured boogie-woogie style of Nancarrow and which Adams described as a "short, manic, bipolar scherzo". Ralph van Raat (piano), Maarten van Veen (second piano, Hallelujah Junction).
