The Light That Fills the World

Three darkly textured pieces for bass clarinet, marimba, vibraphone, piano, organ, violin, and doublebass. Performances by Marty Walker, Amy Knoles, Robin Lorentz, Bryan Pezzone, and others. Adams’ recent work tends to transcend his compositional devices–which churn away in the background while the surface shimmers with the simple joy of making sounds. It is compelling, quietly expressive music that seems timeless in its sublimity. “Whenever I hear this music I am mesmerized by something I can only call truth.” –Barry Lopez, author of “Arctic Dreams” and “Of Wolves and Men”
