This Warner Classics debut makes clear that they show great imagination in their programming: Messiaen’s mystical and epic Visions de l’Amen, composed during World War II, appears alongside John Adams’ boisterous and percussive Hallelujah Junction, inspired by a truckstop on the border of Nevada and California.The CD is completed with JS Bach’s serenely moving ‘Gotttes Zeit ist die allerbeste Zeit, BWV106’ (Sonatina from ‘Actus tragicus’) in an arrangement by the contemporary Hungarian composer Gyorgy Kurtag.
