I love you guys! Thanks so much for showing that there are humans with the same taste in music that appreciate this Master peace. beautiful interpretation and cover. All the best from Germany!!!
[Sanskrit translated] The Lord said: I have passed through many a birth and many have you. I know them all, but you do not. Yet by my creative energy, I consort with nature and come to be in time. Whenever the law of righteousness withers away and lawlessness arises, then do I generate myself on Earth. I come into being age after age and take a visible shape and move a man with men for the protection of good, thrusting the evil back and setting virtue on her seat again.
I'm not sure how I missed this in my e-mail in February, but I just wanted to say: wow. Y'all did an amazing job. It's so smooth, dream-like and lovely - so very Glass. Thanks for arranging this Mark, and thanks to each of the players for sharing your beautiful music with the rest of us. Bravo!

ace1262 Thank you so much!! How did you find the actual Sanskrit passage? I would love to have the Sanskrit text for some other parts of the Opera too. Any chance ?
Thanks for uploading & sharing your interests & skills. I've enjoyed watching & listening very much, all the best & I'll be waiting for ten next in line................not too long in coming I hope. Dave W.
Is there any sheet music available for this? It's a very mesmerising piece of music and sounds wonderful on four guitars. I am trying to start a guitar quartet and this would be a great starting place.
Hi Steve - the score is available on our old website for review - www.arveyfrancis.com.Individual parts are available to those who make a donation. Thanks for your interest.
Thank you Barun. According to Google, Stygraha means: "a policy of passive political resistance, especially that advocated by Mahatma Gandhi against British rule in India."

Wonder what Satyagraha means? Beautiful piece
Thank you Barun. According to Google, Stygraha means: "a policy of passive political resistance, especially that advocated by Mahatma Gandhi against British rule in India."
