Our Take

Shirinyan teams up with the Rheinische Phil (that's German for the Rhine Philharmonic, in case you weren't cultured enough to know) to tackle Philip Glass' renowned Symphony No. 5. And lemme tell ya, it's a wild ride.

From the opening notes of the first movement, you're hit with Glass' signature minimalist style, like a slap in the face from a musical genius. The strings soar, the percussion pounds, and the whole orchestra moves as one cohesive unit. It's like watching a synchronized swimming routine, but with way more violins.

But just when you think you've got Glass all figured out, he throws you a curveball with "Fantasy," a bonus track that takes the symphony to a whole new level of avant-garde weirdness. It's like Glass took a jazz band, a choir, and a circus and threw them all into a blender. The result? A cacophony of sound that's both chaotic and strangely beautiful.

Shirinyan and the Rheinische Phil handle Glass' intricate compositions with finesse and flair, bringing their own unique twist to each movement. It's a rollercoaster of emotions, from the highs of triumph to the lows of despair, all set to a mesmerizing soundtrack that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about classical music.

So grab your monocle, pour yourself a glass of fine wine, and settle in for a musical journey that's as mind-bending as it is toe-tapping. SHIRINYAN / SO RHEINISCHE PHIL Glass / Symphony No 5 / Fantasy is a true masterpiece that demands your attention. Trust me, you won't regret it.
