About this Album

Allen Ginserg serves as narrator and librettist for this 1990 music/theatre collaboration, an impressionistic portrait of America. The Washington Post says, "Glass generates a focused emotional intensity ... but does not let the music get in the way of the agonizingly eloquent words."
