D-3 Adams, John, composer. Album: Harmonielehre. Perf. San Francisco Symphony Orchestra. New York: Nonesuch Digital, 1985. 9 79115–2. This album was produced as part of the “Meet the Composer Orchestra Residency Series.” The composition is divided into three parts, the second of which is entitled “The Anfortas Wound.” That part begins with very slow, melancholy strings (in contrast to the much louder, dramatic opening of the piece as a whole, or the more playful tone of the third part where “harmony” is restored); it builds to intense, almost discordant notes and rumbling drums. The second section as a whole, Adams notes in an interview, is intended to represent the frustration of a period of creative inactivity, using the Fisher King as a symbol for the artist, who is eventually healed by the Grail, or the return of inspiration (interview with Jonathan Cott provided as part of the liner notes to the album).
