Philanthropy at work...
In a groundbreaking strategic partnership, Indianapolis Opera has joined
the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, home of IU Opera Theater, to
present two performances of American composer Philip Glass’s seminal opera
Akhnaten at Clowes Memorial Hall in Indianapolis, in addition to the school’s
four performances at the Musical Arts Center in Bloomington.
We would like to extend our most sincere appreciation to the Allen
Whitehill Clowes Charitable Foundation, Inc., the Christel DeHaan Family
Foundation, and the Indiana University Office of the President for making
this collaboration and the performances in Indianapolis possible. Through
their investment and belief in the partnership between IU Opera Theater and
Indianapolis Opera, these organizations have given Indiana University Jacobs
School of Music students a unique opportunity to share their musical talents
with the Indianapolis community, and Indianapolis music lovers will experience
one of the finest collegiate opera programs.
We look forward to all of these distinctive performances.
Synopsis
by Elizabeth Newton and Candace Evans
The opera is set in the city of Thebes, Egypt. It is a series of episodes from the life of
Akhnaten, Pharaoh of Egypt from 1351 to 1334 B.C.
Prelude
The opera opens with an orchestral prelude and a reflection on the current conditions
in Egypt. We are then introduced to the Scribe, a narrator who will guide us
throughout the opera. The Scribe’s opening speech predicts the religious and social
changes to come during the rule of Akhnaten.
Funeral
Pharaoh Amenhotep III has died, and the people of Thebes bid farewell to him and
accompany the funeral procession along the Nile.
Coronation
Akhnaten, the son of the late Pharaoh, receives the double crown of Upper and Lower
Egypt from the High Priest Amon, General Horemhab, and Aye, a government advisor.
The Window of Appearances
The new regime is formally announced as Akhnaten, his wife Nefertiti, and his
mother, Queen Tye, sing a hymn of acceptance and resolve from the Temple windows.
This is the first time we hear the voice of Akhnaten, a role sung by a countertenor,
musically illustrating the unusual aspects of the coming era—the Amarna period of
Egyptian history.
The Temple
It is eight years into the reign of Akhnaten, and, in the Temple, the priests are
worshipping the traditional Gods of Egypt. Akhnaten, Nefertiti, and Queen Tye
arrive and engage in a wordless debate with the priests, declaring a new monotheistic
order of religion. The Pharaoh’s former name, Amenhotep IV, will be abandoned in
favor of Akhnaten, meaning son of Aten, the Sun God. The Temple is destroyed and
the sun enters to light the way for the new, revolutionary Aten order.
Intermission
Akhnaten and Nefertiti
The second half of the opera begins with the Scribe reading a poem from an ancient
tomb inscription. Repeating this poem in song, the words become an illustration
of the love between Akhnaten and Nefertiti. In the background, we see Queen Tye,
who realizes her time of power has passed, as she thinks of her husband Pharaoh
Amenhotep III’s funeral procession journeying to the land of Ra.
The City
Using a text from the Boundary markers of the Amarna period, the Scribe illustrates
the changes in Egypt’s power and Akhnaten’s plan to build a new utopia, Akhetaten.
Meaning the horizon of Aten, the city is to be a place of openness and light.
The Dance
As Akhnaten consults with his architects, we see the city of Akhetaten being built by
the joyful citizens.
Hymn
At a defining moment of the opera, Akhnaten sings a “Hymn to the Aten.”
Determined by the composer that this music is to be sung in the language of the
opera’s audience, Akhnaten praises the Sun God and speaks of himself as one with
him. Following the Hymn, the chorus sings Psalm 104 from the Old Testament in
Hebrew, a direct musical influence from the time of Moses in Egypt.
The Family
It is year 17 of Akhnaten’s rule, and he is with wife Nefertiti and their six daughters
inside their palace. Increasingly isolated from the outside world, the family revels in
their own utopian ideals.
Attack and Fall
Outside the palace, the citizens have grown restless over the neglect of the country’s
needs. As they gather, the Scribe incites their anger by reading letters chronicling the
years of myopic rule. As their distress increases, the mob surrounds and enters the
palace, carrying the Pharaoh and his family away. The scene closes with the Scribe
announcing the end of Akhnaten’s rule.
The Ruins
The Scribe describes the return of the Amon order, with the ascendancy of
Tutankhamen, a son of Akhnaten by a lesser wife. King Tut ordered the destruction
of his father’s city and monuments and oversaw the rebuilding of the temples that
Akhnaten had destroyed. The scene then transitions to present day, where we see the
ruins of the city Akhetaten, the site of the few archaeological remnants of Akhnaten’s
rule. The Scribe, transformed into a twentieth-century tour guide, tells the modern
visitors the story of what once was.
Epilogue
In a timeless juxtaposition, we see the ghosts of Akhnaten, Nefertiti, and Tye, and the
citizens of modern Egypt amidst the ruins.
Program Notes
“Dead Languages, Living Music”
by Daniel Bishop
We know very little about the historical Akhnaten, the rebellious Egyptian
Pharaoh of the fourteenth century B.C.E., who initiated the short-lived religious
reform that came to be known as the Amarna period. In approaching tonight’s
opera, we might imagine ourselves as archaeologists, examining millennia-old stellae
inscriptions and sarcophagus carvings. Always, with such relics, far more is lost than
is preserved. Akhnaten, like ancient history itself, embraces distances and gaps in its
search for familiarity and relevance.
Philip Glass’s music counters the distance of this fragmentary history with
recognizable, even traditional operatic traits. At the time of Akhnaten’s premiere,
Glass was increasingly engaging with Western operatic traditions. In his earlier,
more avant-garde theater works such as Einstein on the Beach (1979), Glass had even
explicitly avoided the term “opera.” But Einstein would eventually be tied together
with Satyagraha (1981) and Akhnaten (1984), to form a trilogy of historical “portrait”
operas. While the first two had originally been independent works, written without
any cycle in mind, only Akhnaten was conceived from the start as part of a “trilogy,”
and, as such, it is far more deliberate in drawing together motives from the previous
two works to create a complementary whole.
Almost inevitably, Akhnaten’s sense of grand historical-mythic sweep drew
comparisons to Romantic opera, especially Richard Wagner’s Ring Cycle. But instead
of a Wagnerian libretto, which would have given dramatic dialogue to historical or
mythic characters, Akhnaten marks out its themes and historical trajectory entirely
with “found texts,” conveying an estranging sense of historical distance. Excerpts
from a group of religious documents traditionally called the “Pyramid Texts” set the
scene for the funeral of Akhnaten’s father. Dating from nearly a thousand years before
the opera is set, they convey the traditionalism of the ancient priesthood, which
the newly crowned Pharaoh will soon forcibly suppress. Glass suggests this shift of
power through recognizable musical tropes. The music of the old order is percussive
and primitivist, suggesting an archaic tribalism from which the “purified” music of
Akhnaten will emerge.
A new era is established by texts dating from the Amarna period itself, in which
Akhnaten and his family overthrow the priesthood of the sun god Amon and establish
a city consecrated to the “Aten,” a transcendent, ineffable deity. Glass characterizes
the young Pharaoh through dramatic instrumentation. The role of Akhnaten is
written for countertenor, and his singing is always accompanied by a solo trumpet,
in much the same way that a string “halo” surrounds the words of Christ in J. S.
Bach’s St. Matthew Passion. Thus Glass marks Akhnaten apart as strange and different,
befitting both his unconventional spirituality and his vast historical distance from the
modern audience. Perhaps implicitly, Akhnaten’s high voice is also reminiscent of the
heroic male lovers of Baroque opera, often performed by castrati (castrated adult male
sopranos). The gender ambiguity implied in this connection perhaps links Akhnaten’s
strangeness to a theory, contested by many scholars, that the young Pharaoh was
sexually androgynous, perhaps even a hermaphrodite.

The libretto’s historical texts are sung as they were written, in the ancient
languages of Akkadian, Ancient Egyptian, and biblical Hebrew. The only exception
to this distancing linguistic archaism is Akhnaten’s Act II “Hymn to the Sun.” The
libretto instructs that this declaration of faith, traditionally ascribed to Akhnaten
himself, should be sung “in the language of the audience,” a technique Glass described
as imparting a sense of sudden, intimate communion with Akhnaten’s thoughts.
Following the Hymn, we hear a choral setting of the biblical text of Psalm 104,
echoing its themes and drawing our attention toward an often-speculated historical
connection between Akhnaten’s monotheism and that of the later Abrahamic faiths.
Several aspects of Akhnaten’s biography, especially several taboo sexual
imputations, may have originated in later Egyptian sources that, following the
restoration of the traditional priesthood, essentially engaged in a historical smear
campaign against the usurper. Nevertheless, Akhnaten’s legacy still contains complex,
even troubling aspects for modern audiences. As a monotheist, Akhnaten was both
an idealist and an absolutist, and his destruction of the images and worship of the old
gods was ruthless—leading us, perhaps, to see him less as a rebellious spiritual hero
defying a conservative order and more as a prophet of modern religious intolerance.
Another such dilemma is played out musically at the opening of Act III. In
Glass’s sharp juxtaposition of the royal family’s dreamy, wordless singing against the
denunciations of the people, we might hear represented an inherent paradox in the
mystical experience, whose withdrawal from everyday reality is both its blessing and
its curse. Led by their spiritual imaginations, Akhnaten and his family move beyond
words into a purely musical, transcendent realm, but also become increasingly insular
and alienated from the very real empire that their negligence of duty allows to decay
and crumble.
Glass and his collaborators on this operatic trilogy were aware of the complexity
of their subjects. Einstein on the Beach, for example, presents Albert Einstein as a
beacon for scientific possibility, but also puts the physicist on symbolic trial for his
role in developing the theories that would make possible nuclear warfare. Five years
later in its genesis, and three millennia earlier in its subject, Akhnaten is likewise a
work with no simple “message.” At the opera’s conclusion, a more recent “found
text”—an early twentieth-century tourist guide—further reinforces the opera’s sense
of distance and ambiguity by reducing the great world-changer and his family to
ghosts wandering through the ruins of their lost world.
Director’s Notes
by Candace Evans
When asked to direct this production, I was at once delighted and overwhelmed.
The music of Philip Glass is uniquely challenging, and the scope of Egyptian history
is vast.
My first step with any opera is always the music. Why was it written and
orchestrated as it was? What did the libretto illuminate? And, most urgently, what
was the real story being told? As I listened again and again, ideas began to form.
Parallel to this world of listening, I began doing research. Beyond the Tutankhamen
exhibits which toured the United States, a few hours in the Metropolitan Museum
of Art, and the opera Aida, my knowledge of Egypt was minimal. One of the great
joys of my career is the continual expansion of knowledge that accompanies each
project. New language, rich history, varied geography, fascinating social behavior, and
apparel are revelations within each directorial assignment. I studied books, toured
exhibitions, watched historical DVDs, and immersed myself in all things Egyptian,
all the while continuing to listen to the music.
Every new piece of information added knowledge and piqued my interest, but
the core question was as yet unanswered. What is this opera really about, and why
should we, as an audience of this time and place, care?
Each day as I listened to the score and continued my research, the media buzzed
about the Arab Spring. As my knowledge of ancient Egypt increased, each day
provided more awareness of modern Egypt. And there, in that synchronicity, was
my answer.
Akhnaten was not Mubarak. His leadership did not purposefully limit the
freedom of his citizens nor was he brutal to his people. However, he was a man
who became increasingly uncaring about the daily needs of his country. While he
was history making in his declaration of monotheism, he allied himself more with
God than his citizens. Constructing a utopian city, surrounded by mountains and
bordered by the Nile, he became philosophically, and literally, isolated from his
people. As in modern-day Egypt, an historical populace continually marginalized by
its leadership becomes a populace who will revolt.
The original work of Philip Glass concludes the opera with a modern look back
at the Akhnaten era during the Ruins scene. I have added another modern scene
during the opera’s Prelude and extended the Ruins scene—with a current reflection
on life—as the opera concludes. Through the use of projections and present-day
action, I invite you to consider the parallels of these two significant eras.
When belief becomes obsession and rulers become myopic, the citizens will
determine a new fate for themselves. History, as they say, certainly does repeat itself.

Set Designer
Doug Fitch has worked in media ranging from architecture and
opera to puppetry and food. As director/designer, he created a
production of Elliot Carter’s opera, What Next?, conducted by James
Levine, which was filmed and premiered at the Museum of Modern
Art. He has also created productions of Turandot for the Santa Fe
Opera, Hansel and Gretel for the Los Angeles Opera, Das Rheingold
for the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic, and Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny in
Tanglewood. With the National Symphony Orchestra at the Kennedy Center, he
mounted L’Enfant et les Sortilèges, Abduction from the Seraglio, and a live shadow
performance of Swan Lake. Most recently, his productions of Le Grand Macabre and
The Cunning Little Vixen, which both appeared at Lincoln Center with Alan Gilbert
leading the New York Philharmonic, were met with great acclaim. This year, he is
directing and designing Petrushka and The Fairy’s Kiss, again for the New York
Philharmonic, in which the entire orchestra will be theatrically involved.
His work in concert-theater rekindled a childhood interest in puppetry now
finding form as a live-filmed and projected miniature theater of moving pictures.
The first production that used this technique was A Soldier’s Tale, featuring Pinchus
Zuckerman and principals from the New York Philharmonic at Lincoln Center.
Evolving into a form of live-animation, he formed a company called Giants are Small,
with whom he created a production of Peter and the Wolf, commissioned by the Los
Angeles Philharmonic.
Other projects have taken him around the world, where he has designed
productions in Russia, made sculpture in Japan, made furniture in Italy and the
Philippines, and had several exhibitions of drawings and paintings in Germany. He
has created a number of performance installation feasts involving whole villages
in France and designed and constructed the interior and furniture for a home for
violinist Joshua Bell. In a traveling exhibition of drawings and painted sculptures
titled Organs of Emotion, he proposed a new design for the human anatomy aimed
at better serving the life of emotions. An exhibition of tactile pictures, Mit Haut und
Haaren, is currently traveling around Germany.

recipient of the Kennedy Center/ACTF Meritorious Achievement in Costume
Design Award. Pisano regularly designs with ballet and theater companies throughout
the United States. Several of her ballet designs continue to tour through Canada,
England, and the United States. She also designed A Little Night Music for Indiana
Repertory Theatre with Sylvia McNair as Desiree. She serves on the board of directors
of the United States Institute for Theatre Technology.
Lighting Designer
Todd Hensley returns to IU after lighting IU Opera’s La Rondine
and Candide. He is a Chicago-based designer whose work includes
such productions as Un Ballo in Maschera, Don Giovanni, and
Cavalleria/Pagliacci for Florida Grand Opera, Boris Godunov for San
Diego Opera, Carousel and From the Towers of the Moon for Minnesota
Opera, Il Barbiere di Siviglia for Michigan Opera Theatre, and
productions for Baltimore Opera, Cleveland Opera, Skylight Opera Theatre, Tulsa

Cast
Akhnaten
Countertenor Brennan Hall is a native of Orlando, Fla. Hall is pursuing a
Performance Diploma at the Jacobs School of Music, where he also
completed his master’s through the Early Music Institute. Hall made his
professional debut singing as a soloist in Bach’s St. John Passion with the
American Bach Soloist, under the direction of Jeffrey Thomas. Hall was
heralded by the San Francisco Classical Voice for his “silky vocal production
and suave presentation... and admirable musical intelligence.” Hall
premiered a Matthew Barney and Jonathan Bepler filmed opera as Horus in River of Fundament.
He also performed several scenes from the movie at the 2012 summer Holland Festival in
Amsterdam. He has performed the roles of the Spirit in Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas and as Willie
in Small Box, a new one-act opera by Bruce L. Pearson and Herman Whitfield III. He has also
appeared in scenes as Sesto (Giulio Cesare), Orfeo (Orfeo ed Euridice) and Malcome (La donna
del Lago). Hall’s concert work as a soloist includes Bach’s Mass in B Minor, Haydn’s Lord Nelson
Mass, Handel’s Messiah and Judas Maccabaeus. He is a frequent soloist for the Bloomington
Bach Cantata Project and the Bloomington Early Music Festival. Hall has studied with Paul
Elliott and is currently a student of Robert Harrison. He received his B.A. in voice from
Rollins College, in Winter Park, Fla.
Nicholas Tamagna is a countertenor of rare quality. Specializing in
Handelian repertoire, he has conquered such challenging roles as Giulio
Cesare, Ruggiero, and Xerxes. His technique, calibrated registration, clarity
of diction, and dramatic versatility have allowed him to cross over into
repertoire sung by other voice types.
In the 2012-13 season, Tamagna will sing with Operamission in the
title role of Handel’s rarely performed Rodrigo. Highlighting his comedic skills, he performs
the role of The Duchess in Gilbert and Sullivan’s The Gondoliers with Utopia Unlimited Opera
Company, and appears at Symphony Space as Ottone in L’Incoronazione di Poppea. In the
concert hall, he is featured in Handel’s Messiah with Princeton Pro Musica and Ars Musica
Baroque All-Star ensemble, and with Christine Gevert’s Crescendo ensemble in the premiere
of La Lombardesca with music of the Polish Baroque. He is frequent collaborator with the
Cherylyn Lavagnino Dance troupe and ensemble.
In 2011-12, Tamagna performed the role of Mr. Norris in A Weimar Flute, a contemporary
piece based on Mozart’s The Magic Flute, and in concerts of Baroque repertoire with The
American Virtuosi and the Richard Tucker Foundation. In previous seasons, his active
performance schedule has included the title role in Handel’s Xerxes, Pane in Cavalli’s La Calisto,
the Witch in Hänsel und Gretel, Farnace in Mitridate, and Ruggiero in Alcina. With Opera
London, Bel Cantanti Opera, and in a reading sponsored by the Metropolitan Opera Guild, he

Fledermaus, Gluck’s Orpheo (Opera Memphis), the Sorceress in Dido and Aeneas, and in scenes
from Britten’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Dove’s Flight, and Stravinsky’s The Rake’s Progress.
Tamagna has collaborated with numerous composers to create roles in new works, most
notably Billy in Richard Burke’s A Game of Poker. In 2009, he premiered the role of Milos in
Jeff Meyers’ A Hunger Art and was an invited guest artist in Melissa Dunphy’s media-splash
oratorio The Gonzales Cantata, featured at the Philly Fringe Festival and on the Rachel Maddow
Show. Both works were given repeat performances at The Burning Bayreuth Festival under the
direction of Timothy Nelson.
An active concert soloist, Tamagna has sung in Vivaldi’s Stabat Mater, Handel’s Messiah
and Utrecht Jubilate, Bach’s motets, Monteverdi’s madrigals and Il Ballo delle Ingrate, and John
Adams’ El Niño at renowned venues, including Carnegie Hall, Merkin Hall, and Avery Fischer
Hall. At Lincoln Center, he performed his house debut as a soloist in Goossens’ edition of
Handel’s Messiah under the auspices of the Distinguished Concerts International New York.
He has been a frequent guest artist with Amor Artis Chamber Orchestra and Choir, Princeton
Pro Musica, C4 Ensemble, One World Symphony, La Fiocco Ensemble, Ensemble Calandra,
Crescendo Choir and Chamber Ensemble, and St. Boniface Choir in Brooklyn.
Tamagna was the first-prize recipient of the 2012 New York Lyric Opera Theater

Nico Castel International Mastersinger Competition, as second Judges Prize in the Arkadi
Foundation Opera Idol Competition, and as a semi-finalist in the first-ever countertenor
competition—the Gianni Bergamo Award for Countertenors in Lugano, Switzerland.
