"Nixon in China"

This is one of my favorite works.
We performed this work in Brooklyn with Robert Spano conducting. He was flawless! It is a tour de force for everyone. The trumpet parts are incredible!
John Adams should write a trumpet concerto!
Enjoy!

Awesome clip....

I love "Nixon in China". When I went to school at IU about 10 years ago, they performed the opera. Every trumpet player in school wanted to get assigned to that orchestra to play those parts.

Minimalist opera....great trumpet parts

Thanks Wilmer.

YES - I thought I was the only one.... I love minimalism/Adams/Nixon in China!

Now we have to find some company brave enough to perform Death of Klingenhoffer! And maybe get them some FBI assistance....

The Brooklyn Philharmonic performed "The Death of Klinghoffer" at the BAM "Next Wave Festival" years ago. Kent Nagano was the conductor.
It was mind-boggling!

I've only been able to watch the DVD.... I hear they get bomb threats if they try to perform it now. At any rate, it is incredible!
