Philip Glass
The record provides a personal view of the composer by removing dense arrangements. It functions as an invitation into a quiet practice space where the keys dictate the flow of the music over time.
These pieces reflect the New York environment of the late twentieth century, when the distinction between formal classical training and ambient atmosphere began to blur. By relying on shifting structures, the music achieves a hypnotic quality.
