Simply STUNNING …!!! 🩵🧡🩶❣

This is the first opera I've ever seen (besides about 10 minutes of madame butterfly on PBS). I watched it on demand in the met app. I so wish I could've seen it in person! I'm in love! This is my favorite period of history. Been reading about Akhenaten and Nefertiti since I was a kid. So maybe that's why this one feels so different to me because I didn't think I liked opera. The costumes, the choreography, the set... The whole thing is just such a celebration of art! Would love some recommendations for more gateway operas that can help a newbie like me build a love for it!

Saw this unique production with English National Opera,no words to properly explain how amazing it is quite overwhelmed by it

Wow 🤩🤩 as a peasant who loves Phillip Glass here I am appreciating opera 💁🏽‍♀️ music has no boundary’s this is fucking unreal!!

Let me tell you this: the immortal Ka of Nefercheperure Akhnaton Waenre is pleased. Mighty pleased!

This production may be better for Verdi's Aida, but for Glass' Akhnaten, it's a travesty for Egyptological purists. All the more since Akhnaten was a historical figure.

Exceptionnel ! Fantastique !

Philip Glass est le compositeur indépassable de notre temps. 🌞

Freemasons this staging is made for you! 🥱

Волшебная музыка, спасибо

Play this at my wedding ❤

beauty allover!!!

Wow.

I LOVE this piece of TE! 💗 This is really INSANE! 😱🎹💥

the writing of this opera and the staging of this opera and the performance of the singers makes this an immortal great

Vecna brought me here ❤

Bästa som hänt mig ! Alla Akhnatens akter är en Gudagåva . Men denna är -over the top ❤ ❤️

Wonderful music. I just wish he’d chosen a dramatic tenor for the title role. I detest the countertenor voice with a passion that borders on paranoia. But that’s my own personal problem, yes? Again, wonderful music.

Magnifico Adoro Glass Grazie

Thank you for publishing this astonishing work of art ! I have a question : where is the original text in hieroglyphs (not in phonetics). I read that it comes from Wallis Budge’ “The Gods of the Egyptians” but I cannot find it in the scanned copies of the book on the www.

beautiful. we saw the on screen Met N.Y.performance in the Pathe house in The Hague and loved it.

My dear friend Anthony you are Brilliant! As is the rest of the cast. The Sets. The costuming! Bravo, Bravo, Bravo!

Hideous voices sorry. Fingers in the ear time.

Thank God for Phillip Glass.

Magistrali orchestra e coro, cali il sorriso della musica sulla civilissima protesta dei giovani!!!

So gay ❤❤❤

Wahnsinnig gut!

😮 Wonderful !

So glad I have You Tube Premium. Can you imagine this mesmerizing, profound performance broken up with an ad for mattresses? Lordy!

Magical...✨

Grazie mille! This is one of the greatest Messiah performances to grace You Tube, especially with the great conductor, John Nelson, at the helm (his Bach B minor Mass performed at Notre-Dame in Paris is almost unsurpassable)! The Spanish soprano here, Sara Blanch, bears an uncanny resemblance to the legendary Cecilia Bartolli, in fact even sounds like her!

I LOVE this opera and have been listening to many different recordings over the years - this one, marvelous- if I close my eyes, since costumes are dreadful... Akhnaten´s vision was that of simplicity, beauty, not masqerade.

Meraviglioso Handel, coro, orchestra e direttore. Arricchito dalla civilissima protesta dei giovani saliti sul palco

Ça détends, mille mercis

Amé esta obra desde el comienzo ,no tuve la oportunidad de verlo .... Gracias x compartir

É uma coisa de uma beleza onírica. Um sonho bom...

P0llqf

Amazing, way too cool.

Unsure if this is intentional, but for me Akhnaten's costume is giving Elizabeth I "Virgin Queen"

can you play it in" Kassel Staatstheater" Germany please?

I'm just grateful I was born to the world this exists in

I would love to see a version of this with a cast full of people of color. It would be neat ❤

Everything about this is superb.

Becoming obsessed with Glass's tripping ostinatos. The arpeggio draws you in then spits you out when he misses a beat. It creates even more anxiety than the repeated phrase can on its own.

Simplesmente... Gênio!!!

Great production.

I just saw a taped version of this production in a local movie theater. All I can say is "breathtaking"! My only disappointment was that a translation of the ancient Egyptian that they sang was not in the supertitles.

I saw Aknaten at the Met for its second run last May. It was my first time at the Met and I left absolutely transfixed by the performance I had just witnessed. I am reading Matthew Aucoin's The Impossible Art: Adventures in Opera (highly recommended) and Aknhaten succinctly captures Matthew's premise that opera is a collusion and transformation of so many disciplines; music, performance, costumes, acting, staging. Each discipline influences the other to produce The Impossible Art. The stunning presentation of Anthony Roth Costanzo's ascent to the sun at the end of Act II is the incarnate of The Impossible Art and I hope to experience more moments like this as my adventures in opera proceed.

I can't get enough of this lately.

Wow! Beautiful
