Philip Glass
Не классика, строго говоря.

1989 Solo Piano

[Для просмотра данной ссылки нужно зарегистрироваться]

To Philip Glass, piano music is something intimate. It was not an accident that his first CBS album, Glassworks, which was designed as an introduction to his music, began with solo piano. Though Glass characterizes much of the music on his recording as romantic, his performances are not in the virtuoso concert-hall tradition of Liszt or Rachmaninoff. Rather they might be viewed as part of the fading American tradition of the piano as a familiar, shared experience of simple, tuneful music.

Metamorphosis was written in 1988 and takes its name from a play based on Kafka’s short story.

Mad Rush was written for the occasion of the Dalai Lama’s first public address in New York City, in the fall of 1981.

Wichita Sutra Vortex is the result of a chance meeting between two long-time friends, Glass and poet Allen Ginsberg, in St. Mark’s Books, a popular bookstore in the East Village.

In contrast to the amplified, electronic nature of his ensemble music and the mammoth proportions of his operas, the music on this album displays Glass in a more refined musical arena, still exploring his own distinctive style.

2. Metamorphosis Two

Ravi Shankar and Philip Glass - Passages

[Для просмотра данной ссылки нужно зарегистрироваться]

“This historic collaboration brings full circle a process which began when promising young American musician Philip Glass met Indian master Ravi Shankar in Paris in 1965. That week Glass, studying with the great Nadia Boulanger, was earning pocket money doing notation and conducting a recording session for the soundtrack of Conrad Rook’s film “Chappacqua.” The score’s composer, Ravi Shankar, was directing his ensemble from the sitar.

What the young Glass heard which lay beyond his conservatory hermeticity was RHYTHM, long out of fashion in the world of American academic post-Webernism, with its almost exclusive concern for harmonic organization. Indian music is based on melody, which would get you laughed at Princeton or Columbia, and rhythm, which despite Stravinsky’s efforts in works like “Le Sacre du Printemps” or “ Les Noces,” was considered “incidental” to constructing 12-tone rows and other serious contrapuntal matters.

So for someone to play for the budding composer an expressive, vital, respect-worthy music must have been mildly astonishing at the very least. He realized that one could construct music on a rhythmic, as opposed to a harmonic, base.

Also, unlike most of the composers Glass had met up till that time, Ravi Shankar was a player, a composer/performer, whose authority arose from intimate hands-on contact with the music itself, and the other musicians, with whom he regularly shared a vibrating column of air.

Unlike previous Shankar “collaborations” (actually elaborate sessions with masters of other musical traditions joining Ravi to “jam” on his own music) the Glass encounter was a rare instance of classical music reciprocity, each composer presenting thematic material to the other as raw material from which these finished pieces were fashioned. “Passages” contains four such co-ventures: two Glass compositions on themes by Shankar (Shankar/Glass); two Shankar compositions on themes by Glass (Glass/Shankar) as well as one piece from each composer completely of his own devising.” -Martin Perlich

The pieces nicely blend and combine almost seamlessly; the intensity, sometimes quiet and sometimes driving and exciting, characterizes the entire CD.

Mere words are not enough to describe the entire emotional charge and powerfulness of this album, so you’ll have to listen to it in order to experience and feel it completely.
Only two words are left to be said: Brilliant and exquisite.
