  • You can hope it isn't like "The Juniper Tree". It's 25 years for the CD!

  • cant wait for the dvd!

  • Music by Philip Glass, libretto by Christopher Hampton. It's a great opera, but don't expect to leave feeling uplifted!

  • saw it last night! it was great! the music was fantastic, the performance great, the libretto a little flat, but in glass tradition, minimal to further the most humane of points-- that we should care for our fellow man and not allow politics to make barbarians of us all...end the war! stop torturing!!!

  • I'm assuming it was the Amsterdam performance of Glass's most recent opera, "Waiting for the Barbarians", based on John Coetzee's book of the same name. I was hoping to find some scenes of the opera to help me decide whether to see it this weekend in Austin.

  • Hmm... I don't understand what this video is about exactly?
