    Don't think I will be ever the same after that last movement! Absolutely stunning.

  3. Robert Chevarier says

    Glass fait dans la musique niaise et ridicule maintenant ? Toujours le même motif répété sans fin. Musique d'ameublement, d'amusement ou pour se moquer ? Hum.

    I finally gained access to the score of The Photographer and made a MIDI simulation of the piece of incidental music missing from this recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ETnKlvwiZQ

    Philip Glass at his height. Mystical, magical and transcendental.

  23. SUSANOSSS says

    El último tema es una de las piezas más brutales e intensas de la larguísima trayectoria de Glass.

  24. Fernando Almeidda says

    Perfect!!! 🎧🎼

  25. Erline Andrews says

    This is amazing.

  26. Виталий Уразов says

  27. Kyriakos Polyzogopoulos says

    Koyaanisqatsi!!!

  28. Robert Viney says

    Each time I hear this piece it feels fresh and enveloping and joyful. I love it.

  29. Anja Alice Wintermann says

    minimalmusik..gute zeit gewesen…damals wo europäische Musikerinnen und Musiker sich mehr auf die art und weise des lernens und dann neu erfinden der musik durch hõren musikalischer silben konzentrierten als diese feste notationssache …dresden und sein festival für zeitgenössische musik…einmal war ich dort auch unterwegs.es war spannend.

  30. Ed Radford says

    Philip I've been loving your music since I was an art student in Toronto in the 70's Thank you!

  31. Nilson Sitta says

    não conhecia, ouvi ontem no programa da Baba Vacari, na eldorado e nada melhor que conhecer a obra toda com um papo bacana. uma audição diferente.

  32. David Duinker says

    ..109 euro voor het singeltje..

  33. perl man says

    This is a love or hate piece. You either get it or you don't. It's transcendental meditation set to music.

  34. A Frog says

    This piece is like a rampaging ice cream truck with an orchestra on top, running through balloons and fireworks and circus monkeys on acid trips.
    In a GOOD way 😉

  35. Tom Briggs says

    I was fortunate to see this in performance. The mesmerizing Act III music was accompanied by a stupefyingly staccato multi-media/slide show of Muybridge's work, transforming the photos into animations. Thrilling beyond belief.

  36. Peter Helbich says

    this is gods music…….glass is not an atheist……..no great music was ever composed by an atheist………facts and love from vienna austria………where it all began,.,.haydn,.mozart,.beethoven,.schubert,.,.etc…………

  37. FishDinners says

    3:17 its an ace attorney game

  38. Questafinia says

    Awful, unbearable repetition.

  39. philglassfan says

    I could play this every day for the rest of my life and never get tired of it. I've been playing it almost every day since 1983 and it never gets old- I must be insane.

    The Photographer – Act 1: A Gentleman's Honor

    All that white hair
    A Gentleman's honor
    And a long white beard
    Burns up in fever

    And this is artificial moonlight
    An artificial sky

    Horses in the air
    Feet on the ground
    Never seen
    This picture before

    And this is artificial moonlight
    An artificial sky

    Horses in the air
    "Whose baby is this"
    Never seen
    This picture before

  41. Jean Perrault says

    I got kicked of Hopi black Mesa, or Bill W. said "third Mesa." A guy cam out and telepathically said,

    "Get the heck outta here."

    Driving the Tonto Plateau in 84, aimless, and so focused with the help of this P. Glass stuff.

  45. Tom Tom says

    Drove through Hopi black mesa at three AM listening to this. A guy came out, and telepathically said,

    "Get the heck out of here."

    That was 1984… With Bill R.

  46. BlackMax58 says

    …fantastic…
