Review
“Energetic, honest, and warm, these conversations between friends reveal the intricacies of the creative process and a deep and abiding love of music.” ―Publishers Weekly
“Traverse[s] much of the geography of classical music, then and now . . . Arresting and memorable.” ―Kirkus Reviews
“Thomas Adès: Full of Noises is a brilliant self-analytical plunge into the mind of one of our greatest artists, the composer Thomas Adès, for whom composing begins with musical notes slipping and sliding across a sheet of paper with a will of their own, and writing an opera feels like swimming alone in a deep ocean. This book is a probing guide to the creative process, as virtuosic in its way as one of Adès's musical compositions.” ―Peter Gelb, general manager, Metropolitan Opera
“[Adès] has outgrown his status as the wunderkind of a vibrant British scene and become one of the most imposing figures in contemporary classical music” ―Alex Ross, The New Yorke
“[Adès] is one of the most accomplished and complete musicians of his generation.” ―Anthony Tommasini, The New York Times
“Even as the UK is brimming with wonderful young composers, I think few would dispute that Tom Adès may be the most extravagantly gifted of them all.” ―Sir Simon Rattle, Gramophone
