Asyla

Album by Thomas Adès & City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra & Birmingham Contemporary Music Group & Simon Rattle

Asyla is a 1997 orchestral composition by British composer Thomas Adès. The work juxtaposes dense, colouristic orchestration and driving, rhythmically intense passages with night-time, dance-inflected episodes, reflecting a modernist yet eclectic approach that helped establish Adès's international profile at the end of the 1990s.
