Thomas Adès: Full of Noises : Conversations with Tom Service (Hardcover)

Composer, conductor, and pianist, Thomas Adès is one of the most diversely talented musical figures of his generation.

His music is performed by great opera companies, symphony orchestras, chamber groups, and music festivals throughout the world.

But Adès has resisted public discussion of the creative process behind his musical compositions.

Until now, the interior experience that has fired the spectrum of his work--from his first opera, Powder Her Face, to his masterpiece The Tempest and his acclaimed orchestral works Asyla and Tevot--has largely remained unexplained.
