Philip Glass - Einstein on the Beach

Glass's career-making 1976 opera, a collaboration with avant-garde impresario Robert Wilson, was revolutionary then, revered now. This "properly hypnotic" 1996 recording, says the Washington Post, is "more complete than the first recording and superior in both performance and sound." Widely credited as one of the greatest artistic achievements of the 20th century, this rarely performed opera in four acts is touring the world in 2012, nearly four decades after it was first performed and twenty years since it's last production.
