Wow, what can I say?!  This release has totally floored me on several occasions and its power remains.  John Adams is one of those composers who uses all different styles and combines them into one that is uniquely his.  In this music there are traces of Glass, Beethoven, Stravinsky, Williams (both Vaughn and John), Holst and more.  But seriously although this work is titled Century Rolls that is not its highlight.  Rather the jewel of this recording is Slonimsky's Earbox.  This is simply one of the most awe-inspring pieces ever.  The passage from 11:30 to 12:30 is one of the most exhilarating and moving passages in the history of recorded music.  Lollapolooza and the title piece are also good but get this recording for Slonimsky.
