He also refracts the pioneering perspective of Charles Ives, who remains a role model for keeping “the vernacular roots of the art alive” while experimenting without inhibition. Adams’s uniquely American perspective comes into intense focus in his operatic work, beginning with 1987’s _Nixon in China_, whose theatrical depiction of the cultural clash between Communism and Capitalism revitalized the genre for an entire generation.
