So....how long did it take you guys to realize this entire song (and a lot of the rest) is sung entirely in Solfège. The first time I heard it I realized 17 min in...You can hear all kinds of crazy shit in it though! <3 ...Rightfully maddening :)

[Radiantttt]

@JeAxra not long, since I watched an interview with the singer :D

I wouldn't have known otherwise though

[BogMyster]

@Jimmytom93 Do you not realize how musically brilliant this is and how therapeutic this is?

[Danthepianist]

@BogMyster Do you not realize how musically retarded that guy is and how much therapy he needs to fix it? He didn't even spell 'glass' properly.

[BogMyster]

@Danthepianist Haters gonna hate

[misslilyjacket]

@Jimmytom93 It's called 'minimalism'. Pretty self-explanatory.

[belisariusorb]

So exciting and hypnotic

[Berselius33]

remembers me "The Grid"

[GamerX7800X]

@Berselius33 yes i love that repeating sequence :)

[nco62292]

huh..i think my todler cousin played this when he was banging on the piano

[valeo626]

your "todler" cousin must be a mathematical prodigy

[cinephilefromhell]

@nco62292 there's no piano in here douche bag. lol

[ShittiestChannelOnYT]

@nco62292 Your toddler cousin has a very structured and repetitive mind then :).

[ashleylynnjoan]

my god... i need to see the music for this... it's perfect

[MuzikJunkyAES]

I like both recordings. The 1979 Sony Classical recording's on 4 CDs, but the 1993 Nonesuch/Elektra recording's on 3 CDs even though it's longer. The former, originally released on vinyl, had to be shortened for that format. I like the SOUND of the older recording more, but the newer one's cheaper and a completely uncut performance. Peace.

[BlueCougar]

The newer one is more "perfect" and unabridged, but IMO sounds cold and over-perfect compared to the "fresher" old recording.

[CrackSnortingSailor]

Which recording of Einstein On The Beach is this?

I've heard a different recording which wasn't as good.

I want to buy the opera on cd but I want to be sure I got the better recording.

[MuzikJunkyAES]

This is the 1993 recording on Nonesuch/Elektra Records. Peace.

[MuzikJunkyAES]

@CrackSnortingSailor This is the 1993 recording on nonesuch/Elektra. It's the longer recording, but the 1979 recording on Sony Classical SOUNDS better. Peace.

[MountGoth]

my favorite is knee 5...

more to come when i get the chance
