Happy Monday: Philip Glass – Morning Passages
If you haven’t listened to Philip Glass yet, you should. He created (and still does!) a plethora of symphonies, operas, concertos, amazing pieces of music for motion pictures and collaborated with other famous and outworldly composers and musicians such as Ravi Shankar. Their album, “Passages” (1990), it is so heavy with layered and different musical textures, twists and turns, that I find it hard to listen to it all the time. It requires all my concentrated effort and attention. Not to be listened to in a bus, on a street, but rather inside, in the dark and solitude.
See here for more info on Philip’s life and work!
This piece is from “The Hours” (motion picture, 2002), but it feels to me brisk, subtle and peaceful like a snow-filled morning.
The kind we have right now, and the kind I hope you’ll have today… :)
So nice! Music and pictures. Big headphones and isolation to listen and enjoy this completely. :-)
Thank you for your comments, as always! ;)
