	Philip Glass - Einstein on the Beach
		The music for "Einstein on the Beach" was written in the spring, summer and fall of 1975.
		Dramatically speaking, the violinist (dressed as Einstein, as are the performers on stage) appears as a soloist as well as a character in the opera.
		The violinist, one of the Einsteins of the opera, remains (even during the final scene, the Spaceship, when the entire company is on stage) seated apart, a witness.

	Philip Glass - Einstein on the Beach
		Einstein on the Beach may be said to represent the apogee of Glass's modernism.
		Indeed, it is not Einstein but Satyagraha (1980) that marks the first of Glass's more-or-less "traditional" operas (insofar as an opera without linear narrative, with a text in Sanskrit and based directly on the Bhagavad Gita may be considered "traditional").
		Einstein on the Beach was revived in 1984, and then again in 1992, by International Production Associates for extended tours, culminating in residencies at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.

		There, the atmosphere was welcoming and informal (in contrast to the fierce concentration of the players), and those who'd made the subway trek to those sessions had the sense that we had tapped into a new manner of listening, a new world of sound.
		"Einstein on the Beach" broke all the rules -- and it brought the composer both fame and notoriety.
		As opposed to the spartan "Einstein," which was composed for the Philip Glass Ensemble and a few soloists, "Satyagraha" (1980) was scored for more conventional forces: strings, woodwinds in threes, organ, six solo singers and chorus of 40.

	The Science Show: 22 January 2005 - Philip Glass & Einstein
		In early January Philip Glass, whose composed the Science Show's theme, 'Einstein on the Beach', was in Sydney to perform at the Sydney Opera House.
		Philip Glass: We don’t know [if Einstein went to the beach], but he was a great sail boat fanatic, he had a boat when he lived in Berlin.
		And so I called it ‘Einstein the Dreamer’ and I said that I thought that his was the way that artists worked.

	Kirkville - Listening Anew to Einstein on the Beach
		Einstein was, by design, a glorious "one-shot"--a work that invented its context, form and language, and then explored them so exhaustively that further development would have been redundant.
		Einstein is clearly a product of the 1970s, both musically (Glass's music has evolved since then, but not to the point of rupture) and culturally (there are many cultural references to the times).
		In fact, as the notes to this recording point out, "some of the music in Einstein had been originally written for a long series of concert pieces." For those who cannot sit through the 3:20 of the entire work, there is therefore nothing wrong in listening to it in bits and pieces.

	Sunday Morning - Einstein on the Beach -20/06/2004
		Composer Philip Glass wrote Einstein in the mid-seventies, the first in a trilogy of operas drawing on much-admired historical figures Einstein, Gandhi and Akhnaten.
		The opera was intended as a symbolic look at Einstein in his varying guises - scientist, humanist and amateur musician.
		Einstein on the Beach, Parts 3 and 4, continues on June 19, 23 and 26 at the Opera Studio, State Opera of South Australia.

		The improvement in synthesizer capabilities in the decades between this recording and the later one are notable from the beginning of Disc 1, Track 1.
		This Sony recording was the origninal one, performed when Einstein on the Beach was still "hot from the oven." I agree and disagree with the reviewers below.
		As Einstein proclaimed relativity as a fresh way to look at time, space, the universe and our inner existence, so Glass presents melodies and text which change glacially through pieces which sound like masturbatory repetition.

	Music Review: Philip Glass - Einstein On The Beach
		Although "Einstein On The Beach" is considered an opera, I hesitate to call it so.
		"Einstein On The Beach" consists of five "knee plays," four "Train" sections, two dances, two trials, and a "Spaceship" scene that climaxes the opera.
		My explanations are probably making "Einstein On The Beach" sound mathematical and complicated, which it is not.

	Notes on Robert Wilson and Anna Deavere Smith--Carla Blank, UC Berkeley
		The original production of Einstein on the Beach, an opera in 4 acts by Robert Wilson and Philip Glass with choreography by Andrew de Groat, was created with a 36 member cast, including Sheryl Sutton and Lucinda Childs.
		There are three quotations from Einstein that seem central to the making and understanding of the work: "In the universe, everything that happens has a reason, even if we don't know what it is." "The most beautiful experience one can have is the mysterious.

		I took an interest in two of these three themes: Train and Trial, and in the Knee Plays used in each of them, thanks to scores and audio recordings (which last between 15 and 20 seconds and require an Ogg Vorbis capable player).

	ArtandCulture Artist: Robert Wilson (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Sure, his theatrical productions are firmly grounded in the interdisciplinary avant-garde, but they also have much in common with that four-hour dustbowl epic of 1950s cinema, "Giant." His works are massive and rangy, ghost towns under a slow heat and a big sky.
		Wilson's career was set in motion by his momentous collaboration with Philip Glass, "Einstein on the Beach." Even though its 1976 premiere sold out, the audience dwindled over the course of its five-hour sprawl.
		In works like "Einstein on the Beach," "The Life and Times of Joseph Stalin," and "The Civil Wars," political and historical themes meander more than they state.

		The spacey, irradiated picturings of Robert Wilson’s stage, the circle of hairy Hell that is an evening with Pina Bausch, the aggressive abstracts of Anna Teresa de Keersmaeker, Martha Clarke’s morphing narratives—it’s a theater of dreamy, free, often too free, association.
		Even the operas, usually composed by Philip Glass (Einstein on the Beach, the recent Cocteau trilogy) or John Adams (Nixon in China, The Death of Klinghoffer), their loop music scores gliding like a tracking shot without end, spin forth as film from a reel.
