At long last

In 2012, Philip Glass's Einstein on the Beach is to receive its first revival since 1992, in a tour that will begin in Ann Arbor, Michigan, in January, and will go on to the Opéra et Orchestre National de Montpellier Languedoc-Rousillon (March), the Barbican in London (May), Luminato in Toronto (June), BAM in Brooklyn (September), Cal Performances in Berkeley (October), and the Netherlands Opera (January 2013). Glass will be celebrating his seventy-fifth birthday; many other events, including major premieres, are in the works. Fun fact: the New York Philharmonic has never performed a note of Glass.
