Akhnaten - The Window Of Appearances

I added the lyrics in Egyptian with translations, taken from Philip Glass's web site (www.glasspages.org/akhnaten.ht.... I had to place them at the top left since the bottom center already had some subtitles.

Waiting for Stranger Things fans to find this

Good news. The Met is bringing its production of Akhnaten back in the 2021-2022 season.

[@flagcoco69]

Among the most beautiful music I've ever heard. Been waiting nearly 30 years to say that to another human being. Thank you.

[@mjc5509]

This is not the best production..

[@bluedogandcat]

Stranger Things brought me here.

[@judygrover4252]

I do so wish someone would put the entire Met production on DVD some day!

[@MikePribish]

Stranger Things brought me here.

Absolutely beautiful. I have not seen a production before. I love the music, but being able to see the production is like one plus one equals ten. Thanks for posting this. Major composer, major work. The sort of genius that cannot be imitated.

Mr. Glass is a genius of genii. For me, he comes right after Beethoven....

[@rwsmith7638]

burst into tears this unacceptably sublime.

[@philveness8154]

This is incredible. He is a genius- there is no one like him!

I added this to my pump up playlist cause i heard it absolutely slapped, and i was not disappointed. Ive never cranked out better reps then when i was listening to this song. this is almost better than my current favorite, a six hour loop of cannon shots against different surfaces. I eventually had to stop working out cause i was jamming so hard. talk about a song thats easy to sing along to. would 10/10 recommend.

Kudos to a college for tackling this notably complex work!

[@catherinecozzano2580]

I saw this opera at the Met HD live cinema. I wish they had used the subtitles when the singers sing in Egyptian. Thank you so much. It makes a big difference when you understand what they are singing.

[@cleodubois8254]
