  6. Review: Philip Glass' 'Akhnaten' is back at L.A. Opera, this time with a magnificent John Holiday

    misryoum.com/us/lifestyle/revi

    By my count, Philip Glass has written 28 operas, the same number as Verdi. The count is iffy because Glass pushes the boundaries between what we tend to call opera and the fuzzier idea of music theater. His first,...

  7. Philip Glass's #Akhnaten Met rerun again reminds me of an old 'sun with rays' image when they get to the light 'pipes' during Window of Appearances.

    Made around 7.12.2016 based on pic. It was originally meant for a snowflake design, but as if I wanted that when getting the idea it'd suit a sun as well. Colours & life for me.

    We had old slightly warped wood at that place so that got used for bases for paintings otherwise. All semi-fitting Egyptian themes.

  10. If you can catch the recording of The Met's Akhnaten opera, do.

    Especially if feeling like going to church/temple. Or if you want to appreciate the stunning visual of Akhenaten, Nefertiti + his mother Tye in front of the sun, for one.

    It may all lead to teariness in any case. Trailer:

  15. I have The Window of Appearances from the opera #Akhnaten going through my head rn, and it’s very annoying because I forgot my headphones so I can’t listen to it until I get home.

    Akhnaten is awesome, btw, and peak Philip Glass. It’s one of my favorite operas.

  20. Well, Akhnaten is a fascinating and hypnotic theatrical experience that I'll be thinking about for a while to come. Anthony Roth Constanzo gives an extraordinary lead performance and the skills team from Improbable display some highly technical, even virtuosic, juggling prowess!

  24. This is the first time I've seen an ENO opera at the London Coliseum since I was at school (they used to put on regular, subsided opera trips).

    I didn't even know Akhnaten when I booked my ticket but I've been listening to a recording of the work since then and I absolutely love it. So excited to be seeing a performance.

    I loved Phelim McDermott's work on My Neighbour Totoro and can't wait to see what he and Improbable have done here.

  31. The #ENO’s #Akhnaten last night was great. Stunning #PhilipGlass score and I do love a good #CounterTenor. Staging and costumes up to the usual high standards. Very slow movements throughout evoked our culture’s view of Egypt as being all about unchanging ritual which in a way was the whole point. Akhnaten’s radical innovation FAILED with an instant return to the status quo ante. #opera

  36. If you have any interest in contemporary music and staging, I urge you to see eno.org/whats-on/akhnaten/ which returns after the 2018 sell out. It’s breathtaking. It also shows what ENO can achieve, putting the current thread into sharp relief. #akhnaten #philipglass

  41. The moment you realize that you have a legitimately good reason to assign some #PhilipGlass listening in a non-music class -- that is a good moment!

    Using Glass's #Akhnaten opera in a #History of #WorldReligions
    survey with hopes that it will encourage students to also think critically about stories/metanarratives of #Religion and our participation in its construction as students/scholars. We'll enjoy the main Hymn to the Sun aria but also use its presentation, along with the discussion of Akhnaten in the #AriaCode podcast and our course readings, to consider what story is being told about religion more generally -- and what other possibilities are perhaps obscured by those choices.

    Trying to find ways to infuse a critical approach with some subtlety (i.e. no/few theoretical readings, minimal jargon).

    The Aria Code podcast episode on the Akhnaten Hymn is one of my favorites of the series!

    Page from a #zine about seeing #Akhnaten in London while jet-lagged. This was the perfect performance to see while floating between sleep and waking, dream and spectacle.
