Description
An opera in four acts for ensemble, chorus and soloists in full score from minimalist composer Philip Glass. It is Glass's first and longest opera, taking approximately five hours to complete, with no intermission. Given the nature of the music – the lengthy repetition of small elements, very gradual development and change, recurring patterns – audience members are free to enter and leave as they wish.
