    Thomas Adès' opera The Tempest, based on Shakespeare's play, conjures a compelling musical world from its turbulent opening orchestral prelude through Ariel's stratospheric aria and the radiant final quintet. Responding to the librettist's clear refashioning of Shakespeare into rhyme schemes, Adès created a new tonal language that is both direct and contemporary while communicating the story effectively.

    With The Tempest, Thomas Adès composed one of the most striking and successful operas
    of recent years. From the turbulent orchestral prelude with which it begins to Ariel’s
    stratospheric yet ethereal ‘Five fathoms deep’ and the radiant quintet of reconciliation in its
    final act, its composer conjures up a wholly compelling musical world. Responding to librettist
    Meredith Oakes’ clear, unfussy refashioning of Shakespeare into formalised rhyme schemes,
    Adès has created a new kind of tonal language that is both direct and communicative but also
    indelibly contemporary.
