Having just played this CD, I must say that the item that interested me
most was the piece by louis Andriessen "De Snelheid".

To me this was an introduction to the music of Andriessen.  I look forward
to discovering more.

The Adams pieces on the CD are all recorded elsewhere in what I believe
to be better performances.  I buy the magazine primarily as a magazine,
the CD being an extra bonus.  At times it is a worthy addition to my
music library.  Most often it is a curiosity item. The music being either
something I have not yet heard or other performances of well known works.
