This compilation celebrates Philip Glass' 80th birthday through his unique contribution to the solo piano repertoire. It includes the sweepingly diverse and intricately melodic Etudes which are both technique-expanding and also intimately personal statements. His importance as a ? lm composer is shown in the subtle power of his transcriptions from stage and screen music, Metamorphosis I-V, and in his BAFTA-winning score for the The Hours. And Music in Fifths - which Steve Reich called "like a freight train" - dates from his experimental years and is full of a mesmerising variety of pulse patterns.
