      John AdamsÆs Naive and Sentimental Music, an orchestral work of nearly 50
      minutes, is his most ambitious symphonic work to date. Premiered and
      recorded by the Los Angeles Philharmonic under the direction of Esa-Pekka
      Salonen, to whom the piece is dedicated, the work has subsequently been
      performed to great critical acclaim in New York, Chicago, Boston, and
      Cleveland, and throughout Europe.

      Taking its title from the German poet Friedrich Schiller, Adams's Naive
      and Sentimental Music has been called ôultimately personal, intimate à an
      epic in which individual stories peek through the onrush of historyö (Los
      Angeles Times) and ôa maximal tour de force that proves how far [Adams]
      has moved from his minimalist rootsö (Chicago Tribune). The piece also
      takes its lead from the Schiller work, which examines the relationship
      between two different artistic personalities, one that creates in an
      un-self-conscious way, and one that tends to analyze itself as it creates.
      Adams has articulated his attempt to let the former aspect of his own
      nature ôplay freelyö in this new work.

      Following on the heels of a three-day, eight-concert retrospective of
      AdamsÆs music at the BBC Festival in London earlier in 2002, which
      showcased nearly all of his most significant works, Naive and Sentimental
      Music came at a time of an unprecedented degree of recognition for the
      composer both in the US and Europe.
