I shortened the title from a more complex one to allow me the freedom to explore the topic in a freer way. In this paper, I will discuss some of the minimalist techniques that Philip Glass uses – particularly in “Music in 12 Parts” “Strung Out” “1+1” and “Einstein on the Beach.” This will include examples from the literature of additive and subtractive structures as a way to create form, as in “Music in 12 Parts.” I will be examining “Einstein on the Beach” as an allegorical LSD experience as illustrated by the La So Do theme that occurs as the audience enters, and as the work ends. I will be using philosophical statements by Glass and Robert Wilson to further illustrate the possibility of this being an allegory for such an experience. In addition, I will be using sources of Timothy Leary's explanations of what happens to the mind during actual psychotropic experiences and the religious nature of such experiences, and that Leary himself did an “Einstein based musical portrait” prior to the release of “Einstein on the Beach”. I will also be exploring some of Glass's religious and cultural affiliations. </b><br /><br />http://www.uh.edu/~tkoozin/4365/termPapers.htmlPliablehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10616598845886342325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060605.post-87636253179133747632010-04-16T15:58:40.973+01:002010-04-16T15:58:40.973+01:00I heard Morton Feldman's "Palais de Mari&...I heard Morton Feldman's "Palais de Mari" in concert once.
