Customer Reviews
a fun night in SoHo
This was Apple's first classical event from SoHo and it seemed appropriate to invite their neighbor Philip Glass, who 40 years ago began to make his name in the very same lofts which surround the refurbished old Post Office which is now Apple swanky retail store.
This is a good program with two selection of Glass himself playing solo piano. Later on he accompanies his cousin and public radio superstar Ira Glass in a rendition of the Glass/Ginsberg piece "Wichita Vortex Sutra" and Glass also accompanies cellist Wendy Sutter in a couple of selections from The Screens including the sumptuous "The French Lieutenant Dreams" which was written as music for the Genet play. This was also a showcase for the excellent violinist Tim Fain who recently, perhaps two years ago, performed the solo violin in a concert performance of Einstein on the Beach at Carnegie Hall with the Philip Glass Ensemble. We hear him hear with a performance of "Knee Play No.2." Sutter and Fain then joined up with their colleagues Jesse Mills, David Harding, Hsin-Yun Huang, and Alexis Pia Gerlach a.k.a. The Glass Chamber Players for a performance of the Glass Symphony No.3 arranged for string sextet. All and all a great and varied concert in an unconventional venue. The audience was enthusiastic.
DOWN WITH THE PURISTS!!!! GLASS IS GOOD!!!
I don't understand the purists!?! Transparent??? Little kid??? That's why he's controversial and controversy is good in art, it sides with the everyman who is imperfect and conflicted with life. The everyman who the music is intended for to begin with, for the masses, not the purists or the critics; makes the comments by "Boolez" and "JOHN WILLIAMS CLARINET CONERTO" seem irrelevant and antiquated in their way of thinking. If you like Philip Glass or are just skimming through the tracks and the music strikes a chord in YOU, this is WELL WORTH THE PURCHASE. Support the music (if you like it), NOT the critics!!
Really well done.
This performace is very well executed and contains many of Glass' best pieces for piano and chamber group. I particularly enjoyed the String Sextet. A definate buy.
