"Einstein on the Beach" Launches World Tour in Ann Arbor; "Classical Music Event of the Year" (Detroit Free Press)

Robert Wilson and Philip Glass's Einstein on the Beach returns for the first time in 20 years with the launch of a major international tour, starting with preview performances at the Power Center in Ann Arbor, Michigan, this weekend. These mark the first North American presentations ever held outside of New York City. "It's only January, but the classical music event of the year is already upon us," exclaims the Detroit Free Press. "Glass and Wilson strip down the fundamentals of movement, image, text and music to essentials and then elevate their essence to operatic grandeur ... It's hard to overestimate the impact of Einstein on American music, art and culture."

About this Album

Glass contributes the score to the 1996 adaptation of Joseph Conrad's novel by Oscar-winning writer-director Christopher Hampton (Dangerous Liaisons). "Mining a mysterious, darkly lyrical vein," says Billboard, "Glass has fashioned for the soundtrack some of his most alluring, involving music since his Violin Concerto."
