Noises, Sounds, Sweet Airs From Young British Hope
An absurdly high level of expectation attended the premiere of The Tempest, the first large-scale opera by the British composer Thomas Adès, which was introduced on Feb. 10 by the Royal Opera at Covent Garden. In the mid-1990s Mr. Adès, then in his 20s, was already being hailed as the great hope of British music and the most accomplished British musician over all since Benjamin Britten. In recent years Mr. Adès has produced a roster of bracing orchestra, chamber and choral works. But could he put it all together for a major Covent Garden commission? Others can assess how well he has met the unreasonable expectations. What I can say after attending Friday nights performance here is that this young composer, just 32, has written an entrancing opera, with a libretto by Meredith Oakes, adapted from the Shakespeare play. When Mr. Adès, who also conducted, joined the cast onstage at the end, he was given a heros ovation..
