Edition widmet sich der US-amerikanischen Minimal Music. Steve Reichs Music for Six Marimbas aus dem Jahr 1986 ist ein Klassiker. Sechs Marimbas werden zu einem dichten\, pulsierenden Klanggewebe\, in dem sich kleine rhythmische und melodische Verschiebungen allmählich zu neuen Strukturen formen. Die Musik wirkt zugleich meditativ und hochenergetisch – ein faszinierendes Spiel aus Präzision\, Bewegung und Zeit. Auch Gavin Bryars nutzt in seinem Perkussionsquintett One last bar then Joe can sing (1994) die Klangvielfalt des Schlagwerks. Bei ihm sind es lyrische\, fast kammermusikalische Gesten\, teilweise unruhig repetitive Figuren\, fragile harmonische Verschiebungen und sanft schwebende Linien\, die zu einer lebendigen minimalistischen Klanglandschaft führen. Obwohl Schlaginstrumente in vielen Werken von Philip Glass eine wichtige Rolle spielen\, schrieb er seine erste und derzeit einzige Komposition für Schlagwerkensemble\, Perpetulum\, erst 81-jährig. Es verbindet eine fast kindliche Erkundung der Klänge mit Glass‘ charakteristischem musikalischen Stil und zieht vor allem mit sphärischen Klängen in seinen Bann. \nSchlagzeugkollektiv Tirol: Matthias Legner\, Chris Norz\, Fabian Kluckner\, Stefan Heiss\, Benjamin Kowollik Ltg: Andreas Schiffer \nProgram: \nSteve Reich Music for Six Marimbas Gavin Bryars One last bar then Joe can sing Philip Glass Perpetulum URL:https://philipglass.com/event/tirol-austria-tirol-concerto-perpetulum/ LOCATION:Salzlager Eventlocation – Hall in Tirol\, Saline 18\, 6060 Hall in Tirol\, Austria END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260322 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260323 DTSTAMP:20260511T091359 CREATED:20250312T230722Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260318T225040Z UID:10001345-1774137600-1774223999@philipglass.com SUMMARY:Los Angeles\, CA (Akhnaten) DESCRIPTION:http://laopera.org/performances/2026/akhnaten  \n \nAt a Glance\n\n Philip Glass’ acclaimed  opera  returns  by popular demand\nPhelim McDermott’s spectacular production features stunning sets and  costumes that feature animal heads\, exotic plumes and intricate beadwork\nMusic that has permeated  culture from New York City Ballet to  Netflix’s Stranger Things \n\nHailed by critics and beloved by audiences\, this eagerly anticipated revival transports you to Ancient Egypt in Philip Glass’s enthralling portrait of a trailblazing pharaoh.

Dans l’ailleurs où se réfugient Paul et Élisabeth\, le tout jeune metteur en scène allemand Matthias Piro reconnaît la tentation de sa propre génération : celle de s’échapper du réel pour fuir un monde en crise. Il nous emmène alors\, aux côtés de Gérard et Agathe\, dans le cosmos fantasmagorique du duo infernal. Peu à peu\, leur univers parallèle se transforme en un labyrinthe où disparaissent les notions de temps et d’espace – jusqu’à ce que la mort accomplisse leur vœu d’une enfance éternelle. \nDistribution \nOpéra pour quatre voix et trois pianos de Philip Glass (né en 1937)Livret du compositeur et Susan Marshall d’après le roman éponyme de Jean Cocteau (1889-1963)Créé en 1996 au Théâtre du Casino de Zoug (Suisse) \nDirection musicale Virginie DéjosMise en scène Matthias PiroDécors et costumes Lisa MoroCréation vidéo Janic Bebi\, Jonas DahlDramaturgie Miron Hakenbeck \nAvecMarie Smolka ÉlisabethSergio Villegas Galvain PaulNikola Printz Agathe/DargelosAbel Zamora Gérard \nNouvelle production de l’Opéra de Lille URL:https://philipglass.com/event/lille-france-les-enfants-terribles/ LOCATION:Lille Opera\, Pl. du Théâtre\, 59000 Lille\, France END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260322 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260323 DTSTAMP:20260511T091359 CREATED:20251001T225052Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260318T225037Z UID:10001570-1774137600-1774223999@philipglass.com SUMMARY:Rome\, Italy (Ballet: I FEEL THE EARTH MOVE) DESCRIPTION:https://www.operaroma.it/spettacoli/neumeier-godani-millepied/ \nNeumeier / Godani / Millepied \nDirettore Daniel Capps \nSPRING AND FALL \nMusica di Antonín Dvořák \nCoreografia e costumi John Neumeier \nAssistente alla coreografia Sasha Riabko \nECHOES FROM A RESTLESS SOUL \nMusica di Maurice Ravel \nCoreografia\, scene\, costumi e luci Jacopo Godani \nAssistenti alla coreografia Zoe Lenzi e Vincenzo De Rosa \nI FEEL THE EARTH MOVE \nMusica di Philipp Glass \nCoreografia Benjamin Millepied \nInterpreti \nAlessandra Amato\, Rebecca Bianchi\, Susanna Salvi\, Alessio Rezza \nFederica Maine\, Marianna Suriano\, Claudio Cocino\, Michele Satriano \nOrchestra\, Étoiles\, Primi Ballerini\, Solisti e Corpo di Ballo del Teatro dell’Opera di Roma \nNuovo allestimento Teatro dell’Opera di Roma \nDove Teatro Costanzi Maggiori info URL:https://philipglass.com/event/rome-italy-ballet-i-feel-the-earth-move-6/ LOCATION:Teatro dell’Opera di Roma\, Piazza Beniamino Gigli\, 00184 Roma RM\, Italy END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260322 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260323 DTSTAMP:20260511T091359 CREATED:20251110T232253Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260318T225046Z UID:10001590-1774137600-1774223999@philipglass.com SUMMARY:Sydney\, Australia (Mad Rush) DESCRIPTION:https://www.sydneyoperahouse.com/sydney-symphony-orchestra/2026-season/organ-recital-anna-lapwood \n An Organ Recital with Anna Lapwood Playing the Sydney Opera House Grand Organ 22 March 2026 Classical MusicSydney Symphony Orchestra \nArmed with boundless energy and musical insight\, British organist Anna Lapwood is changing how the world hears her instrument \nThe Times calls her ‘a star on a mission – and a breath of fresh air for classical music.’ \nIn her Australian debut recital\, Lapwood takes the keys to the Sydney Opera House Grand Organ\, one of the largest and most majestic instruments in the world.

Orphaned and dependent on each other\, they spend their days in their room\, where they play the ‘game’. Gérard is Paul and Lise’s only friend and link to the outside world. As they grow older\, their intense bond becomes increasingly destructive. When it becomes too oppressive for Lise\, she starts working as a model and meets Agathe there. What started as a childish fantasy grows into a web in which everyone becomes entangled. \nFour singers\, an actor and three pianos. That’s all it takes to tell a gripping story about the driving\, transcendent and sometimes destructive power of imagination. \nPhilip Glass’ chamber opera Les Enfants Terribles Philip Glass’ is based on the 1929 novel of the same name by French poet\, writer and filmmaker Jean Cocteau. The music is\, in the words of director Béatrice Lachaussée\, ‘enchanting\, fascinating\, hypnotic\, sometimes cheerful and sometimes oppressive’. Glass is known for his repetitive minimal music. In Les Enfants Terribles\, this music immediately evokes strong images. For Lachaussée\, the music describes life\, which just keeps going on and on\, with ups and downs.
