Temple of Dendur: Metropolitan Museum of Art 2013
(2013)

Temple of Dendur: Metropolitan Museum of Art 2013 was a special show held by Om on July 19, 2013. Notably it was a live performance of Om directly facing ruins of the Temple of Dendur at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.

Background[]

In 2013 on May 16, Om announced a short string of shows in Europe and along with it a special one-off set in New York City.[1] This set would notably feature what was billed as a "site-specific" version of the song "At Giza" from the 2006 album "Conference of The Birds".[2]

The set happened at 7PM in front of a sold out crowd of 600, culminating in what was reported as a "45-minute rendition" of At Giza. Though most praised the show a few did criticize it for poor sound mixing and playing in a direction where the band faced the ruins rather than having said ruins as a backdrop.[3]
