- The LP version of a highly successful CD-issue of the complete piano music by John Adams (born 1947).
- “Minimalism, but not as you know it”, thus described The Guardian the John Adams’ music.
- John Adams is active in almost every musical genre, from opera to film scores, jazz and chamber music. His original and open-minded style has captured audiences worldwide and well beyond the boundaries of strict classical music. In his (surprisingly few) piano works Adams uses a wide variety of techniques and styles, while addressing a vast scope of emotions, from loud, rough and spiky to delicate and flowing simplicity.
- Played by Minimal Music pioneer and champion Jeroen van Veen, seconded by his wife Sandra van Veen on second piano in “Hallelujah Junction”.
