monsters of grace
I've been listening to Philip Glass alot lately, the old stuff that I have and things I've never heard before. Some of it is crazy amazing. I remember seeing Monsters of Grace way back in 98/99 when he came to G-ville.
Hmmm. I hadn't heard it since that performance and I thought, let me have another listen. Now I realize that sometimes the memory of something is sometimes way better than the experience, especially when it had grown kinda hazy. Listening to it brought it all back.I recall hating the English opera part. I now realize that my observation then was pretty sound. Yeah, some things just don't so sound good when you can understand what they're saying. If it were in another language or if they enunciated a little less carefully, I would never have known the levels of cheese that Philip Glass could plumb. We're talking Poisonesque. Am gonna stick to the stuff without words.
