Satyagraha Tickets

Satyagraha Opera Tickets

Enjoy a true opera experience with Satyagraha tickets. Satyagraha, a Sanskrit word meaning truth force, is a 1979 opera in three acts for orchestra, chorus and soloists, composed by Philip Glass, with a libretto by Glass and Constance DeJong. This opera is the second installment of Philip Glass’s Portrait Trilogy, which also includes Einstein on the Beach, Glass’s first endeavor into opera, and Akhnaten. The trilogy spotlights innovators from across history. Glass’s Satyagraha, set to lines from the Hindu Bhagavad Gita, depicts scenes from the life of Mahatma Gandhi as he developed his philosophy of non-violent resistance in South Africa between 1896 and 1913.

Satyagraha is the perfect example of Glass’s minimalist style. The work is scored for two sopranos, two mezzo-sopranos, two tenors, a baritone, two basses, a large SATB (soprano, alto, baritone and bass) chorus, and an orchestra of strings and woodwinds only, no brass or percussion. Principal roles are Sonja Schlesin, Mahatma Gandhi, Hermann Kallenbach and Parsi Rustomji. The opera is presented in three acts, each pointing to a major related cultural figure. Act 1 relates to Leo Tolstoy, Act 2 relates to Rabindranath Tagore with Act 3 dealing with Martin Luther King, Jr. Satyagraha has been performed at major opera venues worldwide.

A venue such as the Metropolitan Opera at Lincoln Center in New York City holds nearly 4,000 guests across its six major seating sections. The Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles has four tiers of seating and able to accommodate 3,156 seats to choose for that perfect seat.

Orchestra, box seating, grand tier, dress circle and balcony sections may all be offered at a venue near you.
