Music reviews of Nixon in China
Music Review: Nixon in China
Rating: 5 Stars
Back in the late 1980s, I watched the Houston Grand Opera's production of John Adams' opera "Nixon in China" on public television. I was blown away, not just by the performances, but by the music, which is absolutely gorgeous.
Unfortunately, we may never get to see that performance again. Why, I'm not sure. It is apparently not available, period.
But the recording is still one of my favorites. I have it on audiocassette from all those years ago. It's on my iPod too.
