About this concert
Kinostimmung im Großen Saal der Elbphilharmonie: Das Philip Glass Ensemble spielt live den Soundtrack seines Gründers und Namensgebers zum Kultfilm »Koyaanisqatsi« aus dem Jahr 1982. Aus der Sprache der amerikanischen Hopi übersetzt, bedeutet der Filmtitel »Leben aus dem Gleichgewicht« – die damalige Kritik am oftmals hektischen Leben des modernen Menschen ist bis heute aktuell.
