I Feel the Earth Move (opera section)
- I Feel the Earth Move (opera section)
"I Feel the Earth Move" is the third section in the TRIAL 2/PRISON section of the opera "Einstein on the Beach" by Philip Glass. The section is written in the same style as the rest of the opera, but has a traditional instrumentation of soprano saxophone and bass clarinet, omitting the electronic keyboard used in most of the segments in "Einstein on the Beach". A poem by Christopher Knowles is read over the musical soprano saxophone and bass clarinet line, and in the poem's meanderings, it mentions such "TV personalities" as David Cassidy. A shortened version of this piece was chosen along with three other selections from "Einstein on the Beach" to appear on another Philip Glass album "Songs from the Trilogy", which also included selections from Glass' operas "Satyagraha" and "Akhnaten". The section's title is a reference to a Carole King song of the same name, from her album "Tapestry".
