I am the luminous moon



Christine Sang during a performance of Robert Wilson and Philip Glass' Monsters of Grace, a story set to Rumi: 

The vocal texts for the opera's 13 scenes -- love poems by the 13th Century Sufi mystic Jelaluddin Rumi -- inhabit yet another parallel universe. There are a few moments when Glass' music serves as a cross-cultural bridge between the sensual spirituality of the poems and the cool sublimity that is Wilson's trademark.

Sang describes her character:

"I am the luminous moon.  A lover is looking up at me."
