Play, download and edit the free video Akhnaten and Nefertiti.

This artwork has been inspired by Philip Glass's masterpiece - the opera "Akhnaten" as staged by the Metropolitan Opera in November 2019 and made availabe onle several times during the pandemic. To these I express my gratitude.

A very interesting interview with the key perfomers of the staging can be found on the podcast series on of Egyptologist Dominic Perry:
