Does anyone here listen to his music, apart from his ICCT-hedral version..? i like his pianoworks :D |
||||||||

yes, I sometimes listen to "einstein on the beach" but not all 4 cds after eachother though, I'd go insane if I did that... |

I took a lot of glass out of the uni's CD library and was totally unimpressed. Steve Reich is a million times better. |

matter of personal taste i think |

I have only one Glass record...The Photographer, it's nice but nothing stunning. Reich is awesome tho...Eight Lines is definitly one of my favorite pieces of music. If you're into minimalism i highly recommend Terry Riley's "In C" |

well, Reich is more diverse. I sometimes like what Glass does, but invariably while listening I start to think he's using the same little trick again and again and again. |

this is interesting. could any of you recommend a single piece of work by each artist which is good to start with? |

maybe you could try 'solo piano' by philip glass (if you like piano), which contains his Metamorphosis series.. or 'glassworks' just give it a listen, maybe you'll like it but on the other hand you'd better listen to TonyFish's advice, think his advice is a million times better |

I got the Koyaanisqatsi soundtracks that he did. Very unique music. If you haven't seen the movie you should check into it. It's now available on dvd. |

||||||||

yeah.. i was just about to ask for a recommendation of some nice minimalistic piano music.. i like erik satie.. but he seems to have a lot of poofy pieces.. i want more stuff like his gymnopedies and nocturnes the stuff by harold budd and brian eno is another reference point |
