Nice. For Philip Glass fans, his third opera Akhenaten gets my strongest possible recommendations, it's visually spectacular at the level of Einstein on the Beach but musically accessible and vaguely pleasant while certainly not being bland. The Metropolitan Opera (NYC) is streaming it on a free trial along with much of the rest of their best recent work. I've learned a lot of people have a conception of opera as a woman singing in a particular style and don't actually realize how visually spectacular the best modern opera has become.
