it is extremely difficult when different parts overlap each other so dramatically, as musicians we are taught to not focus a whole lot on the other parts, but on your part/section. It is the job of the conductor to help blend the band. That helps a whole lot!!
It's funny with Christopher Knowles. When I was 15 and listened to this four or five times a week, with and without drugs of various kinds, I imagined him as a drunken hobo in Washington Square Park muttering to himself. But in fact, these days he looks and sounds like my blind secondary school music teacher, and is just as impressive: th-cam.com/video/er83Icj4RYk/w-d-xo.html . Since I grew up on the 1976 version, I actually felt the White poetry reader in this performance a bit too ... uptight and _present_ for this piece. I liked the way it was mumbled and nonsensical in the first version. But the precision in tuning and rhythm in the choir is so much better than the 1976 recording. Gorgeous post, thank you!
@@sherylbegby the choir tuning is so bad on that original recording I'm surprised they released it! You're right that this performance is much more satisfying in that respect
I'm so glad they used Einstein on the Beach. It's such a huge and important piece that not nearly enough classically trained musicians know about. Phillip Glass =
I too was brought here from the Carolina Crown Drum Corps, however, I was exposed to this Glass piece back in the 80s with Erte' winterguard who did this piece and also took first place...tie with State Street Review, but Erte' took it hands down. This piece allows or makes the creator of a show who uses this Glass piece to explore outside of the typical normal boundries and as such, typically steals the show. I have been a Glass fanatic since first hearing "The Photographer" used by another Winterguard back in the 80s (Miamisburg High School) and began to notice Glass music all over in movies, theatre and even TV throughout the years. Carolina Crown, a Drum Corps I knew very little about took this piece and did what hadn't been done before. They explored outside of the normal boundries of Corps to present an amazing achievement in both music, drama, drill, guard and most notably, emotion. I have watched their show literally 100 times and every single time I'm moved to tears. Every time. For those of you who have marched and performed on a stage that's 100 yards long in the open air, you already know how much work this show took for the kids, the long hours, the pain, the frustration, the confusing tempo at times, the insane dedication to the art of Drum Corps. As you listen to the final notes of the show and watch the entire field all at the same time...it's quite frankly one of the most emotional Drum Corps endings I've ever seen, and I've been addicted to Corps and Winterguard now for 40yrs! Thank you Sport of the Arts for bringing us closer to music that really moves. Music created for and by people who absolutely love music, and arts. Thank you, Mr. Phillip Glass.
This gives me Laurie Anderson vibes. I can't place it on any specific Laurie Anderson piece, and I don't know who came first (but I suspect it was Philip Glass). It doesn't matter. I love them both.
I think this is really beautiful, but I feel if I ever said that to anyone I knew they would think I was nuts. Even the audience at the end is practically laughing.
During the first part, i was waiting for someone to say "Presenting their 2013 show, E=MC2, Drum Core International is proud to present......CAROLINA CROWN!" BUM BUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!
The precision and concentrated presence of this performance is simply stunning. As is the articulation of the speakers; can't stop listening. Unfortunately, there is no information about the performing ensemble or the artists, as the source link no longer work. Who can help?
This is from the performance staged at Brooklyn Academy of Music in 2012. I found a pitchfork review here with a bit more info: pitchfork.com/news/47869-report-philip-glass-opera-einstein-on-the-beach/ I couldn't find anything from BAM's website though.
I'd love to have a copy of the whole program. I contacted producers but they couldn't help me. Is there anybody in the Glass organization that could help get the whole program released? The You Tube clips are great, but...
@@yomgaille This „guy“ is Michael Riesmann. He has been a member of the Philip Glass Ensemble for many decades. He also conducted of the original Einstein on the Beach performances in the Metropolitan Opera NY.
This was one of the songs that stuck with me in my music history class and for good reason. Well, that and it was a wonderful respite from that awful section about Scheonberg's atonal seriaism. Bleh!
I like this song. but kind of this songs doesn't make me repeatedly listen. Such as..too much no feeling and in the future may be the A.I makes well kind of this song.
i can't imagine how difficult it is to keep track of all the vocals overlapping each other. kudos to the performers and conductor.
this is great pure genius Phillip Glass is he is one of the best
Imagine trying counting when this annoying lady is constantly saying random numbers in your ear ;)

@@hannahc.1314 Ipak je to teško ! Svaka im čast, svima !
Holy shit! They actually memorised this?! I can't even remember what I had for breakfast! Amazing!!!
Play this while someone's trying to count a large number of things...
Everything must have an end..... except for the amount of times I press the replay button for this song.
12 people gave this thumbs down. They can't count.
I can feel synapses firing in my brain as I listen to this. Bravo musicians - what an exquisite blend!
These are the days my friends, and these are the days my friends

Ricky S. Is this the piece you're referring to:th-cam.com/video/2yuwWkSI2OE/w-d-xo.html
I bought this as a boxed album set back in the 80's. Still have it and still love it.
absolutely brilliant live performance of this!!!
I love this piece, and very well done here.
This one truly may have many visuals to enjoy. Awesome music, Philip, thank you very much!
beautiful music, wonderful performance
I don’t know how someone could create something so beautiful.
Heard this in my Humanities class today! Absolutely love it!
Thank you so much!
This leads me to a certain Extent of Einstein's nervous sensation
What a physics prodigy ... The mystery of wisdom ...
and these are the days, my friends
walka o prawdę, sztuka szuka (nie mylić ze Szczuką, choć pewnie też;) )
Must've been interesting to learn the words by heart :D Amazing piece of music, hypnotizing voices, love it!
this is awesome ! something so new to me.
Wow, this is great!
The two soloists are fascinating to watch, and the one on the right is so beautiful it hurts.
And what is the one on the left, chopped liver?
Very relevant. Now I understand why you only get to choose between a buffoon and an Alzheimer patient.
This gives me Laurie Anderson vibes. I can't place it on any specific Laurie Anderson piece, and I don't know who came first (but I suspect it was Philip Glass).
It doesn't matter. I love them both.
The voice and delivery of the vocalist on the right is very Andersonesque.
Top of the morning, Love it Thank, thanks and thanks again....
We are all numbers, my friends
Mesmerising, compelling.
Desde hace años que amo esta funcion
Mr robot brought me here
vikazw waghmare same!!!
I had rediscovered this a while ago....and suddenly it showed up on The Best Show on TV.
Did this in reverse, first saw it on Mr Robot & I'm currently watching Enron for the first time. Haunting.
oh, god. WONDERFUL! I am crying!
I think this is really beautiful, but I feel if I ever said that to anyone I knew they would think I was nuts. Even the audience at the end is practically laughing.
F***ck the audience. I saw ths life in Amsterdam and the audience was stunned for a while and then blew up. 123 These ar still the days. FANTASTIC!
this are some of my Favorite Numbers from Einstein on the Beach! xD
weird and beautiful. I love it
saw einstein on the beach last year in belgium
So full of compassion.
So weird. I have exactly the same reaction but I don't know why.
Incredible
During the first part, i was waiting for someone to say "Presenting their 2013 show, E=MC2, Drum Core International is proud to present......CAROLINA CROWN!" BUM BUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!
All I could think about thirty seconds in was "That's Numberwang!"
sebenhundred and neebe?
Here because of Carolina Crown. They masterfully picked the best of the 5 parts.
Aller Anfang ist schwer. Anfangen ist einfach, Beharrlichkeit eine Kunst
Sublime ! Extatique !
ahhh thanks you sam esmail
all these are the days my friends, and these are the days

yes, i am a fan of phantom & the cadets, but i think the crown has a winner in indi here. what a great drum corps.

@@jpillow1188 Thanks a lot and thanks for sharing this remarkable recording
Autocorrect: The Song
It sounds good and bad in a weird way. It is really crazy how they stay composed with many of them saying different things at different times.
I am looking for all the knee 1 videos because it was somehow related to adventure time s2.19
Yes, it is unusual, but Crown made it work in a wonderful way
Anyone know where I can find the dance remix of this song?
Undesirable 👽
GLaDOS?
I feel like I'm having a seizure.
I'd love to have a copy of the whole program. I contacted producers but they couldn't help me. Is there anybody in the Glass organization that could help get the whole program released? The You Tube clips are great, but...
does anyone know what is the white keyboard being used by the director? THNX
A organ synth I think
I know the original uses organ
Looks like a MIDI controller, I saw this version of Einstein On The Beach with these musicians, this guy was playing a Kurzweil synth.

Great!!!

Please edit your videos with TH-cam creator studio, and simply add the tag yt:stretch=16:9
to correct the aspect ratio.
I didn't realize it was off - thanks, that seems to have worked!
This was one of the songs that stuck with me in my music history class and for good reason. Well, that and it was a wonderful respite from that awful section about Scheonberg's atonal seriaism. Bleh!

ok so this is the song at the opening of Rent right?
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
at 1:40 the correct number is 183
The video needs to be stretched to widescreen. Is the video available somewhere else??
Time vanishes, 62, so, it could be
Anyone watching this after watching the Carolina Crown 2013 show?
Reminds me of how my attention processes nowadays --
This would go well with a David Lynch movie.
I keep waiting for an enormous power chord to pop up
Emotional
Is The Count aware of this piece…?!
Carolina Crown!!!
don't leave Einstein on the beach
