Asyla 艾得斯

湯瑪斯-阿德斯的《阿西拉》（1997 年）是當代最傑出的管弦樂作品之一，曾由包括柏林愛樂樂團在內的許多世界頂級管弦樂團演奏。阿西拉》是一部長達 22 分鐘的四樂章 "交響曲"，由包括六名打擊樂手和兩名鋼琴演奏家在內的大型管弦樂隊演奏，其廣闊的範圍和巨大的力量生動地描繪了作品標題所暗指的瘋人院和避難所，在第三樂章 "埃克斯塔西奧"（Ecstasio）中，狂熱的狂歡情緒表現得淋漓盡致。這部作品獲得了格萊邁耶獎，阿德斯也因此成為該獎項有史以來最年輕的獲獎者"

原文簡介:
One of the defining orchestral works of our time, Thomas Adès’s Asyla (1997) has been performed by many of the world’s leading orchestras including the Berlin Philharmonic. A 22-minute four movement ‘symphony’ for large orchestra including six percussionists and two pianists, Asyla’s vast scope and tremendous power vividly conjures both the madhouses and refuges to which its title alludes, never more so than in the frenzied rave-inspired third movement Ecstasio. The work won the Grawemeyer Award, making Adès its youngest ever recipient. ‘It is a thrilling, original work … The effect was exuberant, noisy, disconcerting and intriguing.’ The Times (Richard Morrison), 9 September 2002
