Philip Glass Tickets

Glass envisioned a spellbinding opera accompanied by his music with the backdrop of the movie "La Belle et la Bete". I was mesmerized.

The entire performance was very well executed. From the intro conversation to the film and the musical blending of the 2 forms.

The movie is undeniably brilliant, the parlando score is amongst Glass' best... the two exist independently quite well. However, the synchronization must be top notch to truly appreciate (and not get distracted by the appearance of dubbing alone)... so key. I was at the 1994 NYC premiere, and it seemed sharper & more accurate. This "mashup" requires a spot on performance...

Not worth it. Movie was better without the Glass effort

These 20 Etudes are just fantastic and they were played by 4 great pianists, besides Philip of course. I would go again tomoroow!!!!

I am not a Philip Glass nerd, and don't know all of his works. But I have tracked him over his career, and seen him perform when I can. I had not heard all the Piano Etudes, so went just looking forward to seeing him perform and hearing his performance. The event far exceeded my expectations. I was happily surprised by how Gammage was filled with PG fans, and also by the wonderful interpretations and superlative playing by Maki Namekawa and Ashley Oakley. They blew the doors off the place! The event overall was a wonderful tribute to and celebration of Philip Glass and his career, and the audience seems very appreciative of him and being there to celebrate him.

Wonderful performances of Philip Glass' Etudes. The opportunity to hear a American Master perform his current and new works was not to be missed and did not disappoint. Three pianists performing the Etudes offered a wider interpretation than usual. I enjoyed every second.

I'm a huge fan of Phillip Glass from his soundtracks and it wasn't until I read the program that I found out that he would be playing the "Etudes". I may have missed the mark. Also I realized at that time he wouldn't be playing all of the "Etudes" but others would play also. I was surprised to see a single piano. I was hoping for more instruments and perhaps additional musicians. Though intricate and complex, I found the "Etudes" to be a little dark without the lighter melodies I was so accustomed to. Materfully performed by everyone I felt that I got the idea of the concert by the first half and decided to leave at intermission albiet a bit disappointed. I did enjoy immensely seeing Phillip Glass in the flesh because I think so much of his music but overall I left half full.

My first time seeing Philip Glass and Co. Respectful crowd and heartfelt performances by all three guests.

Do not be one minute late! Even when I saw Leonard Cohen, he replayed his first couple songs because he started right on the dot! Philip is not as patient. Prepare yourself for an intimate evening of amazing art for your ears and soul. Sit on the left side of the stage so you may also appreciate the grace of handwork, otherwise left only to the imagination on the right side of the stage. I also feel that Philip SHOULD finish the last etudes, not Namaekawa. Yes, I know there's only so much hand performance you can expect from each performer, but Philip should finish and not start either (for those of us coming back from the concessions line) Overall, I wish they would have put a more conscious effort to accommodate the audience as many of us concert goers have had the experience for paying nominal fees to appreciate the artists we love so dearly BEYOND our CDs or MP3 players!

The performance was great - it was wonderful to see Phillip Glass in person. I was disappointed in the seating for this performance being general admission. I would have paid more to have an assigned seat of my choice instead of standing in line and rushing in to try to secure a good seat that was the process to hear and see this performance. I've looked on the ASU Gammage website at other performances and have not seen any others handled in this manner - very disappointing.

Went to see Philip Glass at Gammage. His music was beautiful. All three performers (including Philip Glass) were amazing. They made the music come to life.

A once in a lifetime, transformative experience. Beautiful, moving music & the acoustics at Gammage are amazing. A genuine privilege to see Philip Glass in person.

The completed Etudes represent everything great about Glass. Guest Maki Namekawa steals the show though for her interpretations.

One of my memorable concerts. Mr. Glass never ceases to amaze me.

When I sat down I wondered if I could make it through 3 hours & 40 minutes or so of music--even with the breaks. As I heard the music I realized that 3 hours & 40 minutes would hardly be enough. At the first 50-minute break it seemed as if 15 minutes had gone by. The same with the other 3 sets of parts. Thank you, Mr. Glass. You have made the universe audible.

What a wonderful, and beautiful concert. It was moving and inspiring.

I've always enjoyed Phillips Glass's music but had never seen him live. It was incredible to watch him perform and to see the other two ladies perform his music. The Royce Hall is a beautiful theatre. My only complaint is depending on where you were sitting your view is limited. I would have preferred to be on the left side that way I could actually see his fingers on the piano. We were sitting in the last row of orchestra. Also, I would have preferred to see more of him perform and less of Maki Namekawa and Sally.

Philip and his team are machines left on high frequency.

It was great! The sounds was great and a course Philip Glass was awesome!
