Centro Cultural de Belém Belém · Lisbon

Concert by The Philip Glass Ensemble performing iconic works, including 'Glassworks' and excerpts from operas such as 'Satyagraha' and 'Einstein on the Beach', under the direction of Michael Riesman.

Full details

Synopsis Since its founding in 1968, The Philip Glass Ensemble has been the principal performer and guardian of the work of one of the most influential composers of our time. In Early Works, the ensemble returns to the origins of Philip Glass's minimalist language, revisiting some of the pieces that defined a new way of thinking and listening to music. At the centre of the program is Glassworks (1981), the work that introduced Philip Glass to a wider audience and marked a turning point in his career. Conceived as a studio album, it brings together six pieces for winds and keyboards in which melodic patterns repeat, transform and intertwine with hypnotic clarity and singular expressiveness. Works such as Opening and Façades remain among the composer's most emblematic creations. Under the musical direction of Michael Riesman, Glass's long-time collaborator, the ensemble recreates with remarkable precision the relentless pulse, layered textures and propulsive energy that have become distinctive marks of this aesthetic. More than a retrospective, Early Works is an immersive experience that reveals the strength and relevance of music that has profoundly transformed the musical landscape of recent decades.

Show original (Portuguese)

Sinopse Desde a sua fundação, em 1968, o The Philip Glass Ensemble tem sido o principal intérprete e guardião da obra de um dos mais influentes compositores da contemporaneidade. Em Early Works , o ensemble regressa às origens da linguagem minimalista de Philip Glass, revisitando algumas das peças que definiram uma nova forma de pensar e ouvir a música. No centro do programa está Glassworks (1981), a obra que apresentou Philip Glass a um público mais vasto e marcou um ponto de viragem na sua carreira. Concebida como um álbum de estúdio, reúne seis peças para sopros e teclados nas quais padrões melódicos se repetem, transformam e entrelaçam com uma clareza hipnótica e uma expressividade singular. Obras como Opening e Façades permanecem entre as criações mais emblemáticas do compositor. Sob a direção musical de Michael Riesman, colaborador de longa data de Glass, o ensemble recria com notável precisão o pulso incessante, as texturas em camadas e a energia propulsiva que se tornaram marcas distintivas desta estética. Mais do que uma retrospetiva, Early Works é uma experiência imersiva que revela a força e a atualidade de uma música que transformou profundamente o panorama musical das últimas décadas.
