  <title>Einstein on the Beach on 5 May 2012</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Location: Barbican Centre

Widely credited as one of the greatest artistic achievements of the 20th century, this rarely performed work launched its director Robert Wilson and composer Philip Glass to international success when it was first produced at the Metropolitan Opera in 1976. 

It is still recognised as one of their greatest masterpieces. Now, nearly four decades after it was first performed and twenty years since its last production, Einstein on the Beach will be reconstructed bringing this ground-breaking work to new audiences and an entirely new generation. 

Einstein on the Beach breaks all of the rules of conventional opera. Instead of a traditional orchestral arrangement, Glass chose to compose the work for the synthesisers, woodwinds and voices of the Philip Glass Ensemble. Non-narrative in form, the work uses a series of powerful recurrent images as its main storytelling device shown in juxtaposition with abstract dance sequences created by American choreographer Lucinda Childs. It is structured in four interconnected acts and divided by a series of short scenes or “knee plays”. Taking place over five hours, there is no intermission, however the audience is invited to enter and exit at liberty during the performance

Please note: The house will be open and the audience will be invited to take their seats twenty-minutes prior to curtain up (18:00, 17:30, 16:00 – please check your curtain up time when booking). 

Running time: 5 hours from the house opening 

The 2012 production of Einstein on the Beach, An Opera in Four Acts was commissioned by: the Barbican, London; BAM; Cal Performances University of California, Berkeley; Luminato, Toronto Festival of Arts and Creativity; De Nederlandse Opera/ The Amsterdam Music Theatre; Opera et Orchestre National de Montpellier Languedoc-Rousillon; University Musical Society of the University of Michigan.

  <title>Koyaanisqatsi on 31 Jul 2012</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Location: Hamer Hall

Experience the three visionary films of Godfrey Reggio and in a rare opportunity hear the musical scores performed by their legendary composer Philip Glass.

In a Melbourne premiere, Philip Glass and his Ensemble will perform live at each program creating an unforgettable film and music concert. 

Reggio conceived these films over a period of 20 years using streams of raw, emotional and honest images, with no dialogue or linear narrative, to create three unique works of art and forging an entirely new form – concert cinema.

One of the defining composers of our time, Glass has reinvented the relationship between music and the moving image through working with Reggio to choreograph the music and images precisely.

Qatsi means life in the Hopi language and the trilogy is a powerful commentary on the planet we live on. Haunting and beautiful, the films explore the challenges and dangers humankind imposes on the world.]]></description>
