This is awesome. It has to be recorded.
Thank you Philipglassfan for posting this.
I would love to hear/see this! They don’t put up stuff like this in Sweden.
I LOVED this opera. I am actively looking for any recording of this anywhere. It truly was spectacular.
wow, sounds like glass alright. in fact, it sounds exactly like every other piece of music glass has ever written. zzzzzzz
Glass rules!
the sound is classic Glass, unmistakable. Although the review by this guy (in black and white), in the linked videos, make it look like crap
I used an inexpensive pair of lapel microphones under my sweater along with a Hi-MD recorder. I was seated in the Grand Tier.
How did you record this? The sound quality is real darn good.
i love it! thanks for giving us this taste, i can almost hear people giggling in the bg
