The exuberance of imagination (and fiendishly difficult writing) noted on the disc, Life Story, is continued on the present offering. The five pieces make for a well-contrasted programme presented by some of the finest artists active in the UK at the moment. Appropriately, Living Toys is written for and performed by the London Sinfonietta, a group that positively thrives on challenge. The seven-movement string quartet, "Arcadiana" (Op. 12), stands as the most complete achievement on this disk, and it's a work of striking ingenuity and confidence. Adès takes the listener to a charged, somewhat dark place with his music, characteristic registral extremes vying with sonorities almost beyond the reach of the forces employed. It is predominantly dark and makes a haunting, doubting conclusion to a thought-provoking disc. Adès’ music repays repeated listening, and performances like this give one the perfect opportunity to give this music the consideration it is due.—Colin Clarke | ” |
