Necesidad

[wonderer42]

if any piece can evoke the essence of time...this is it for me...you can feel the gravity and flow of time through music...I have know clue how Philip Glass did it, but one can feel time flow through very existence...well then again maybe its a personal idiosyncrasy.

[Kessler1996]

Beautiful

Just utterly stunning, I adore this track!

Musical genius.

[Rag0616]

Mrs. Dalloway said she would buy the flowers herself.

[Alchemist1330]

My parents are getting a divorce! this seemed the best thing to watch after what just happened. sometimes things just don't work out. allot like the characters in this movie. Weather your Virginia Wolf or a 17 year old boy like myself this soundtrack is very consoling,as it recognizes the pain in life.

[PrinceT1814]

I love listening to this track while doing my morning bike ride...its like the intro to my own film

[leonilde53]

my current obsession.......

[PrinceT1814]

@leonilde53 Yeah Im totally with you on the obsession

[106ohm]

Philip Glass reinterprets his past works, Metamorphosis in particolar, and evokes Satie's Gnosiennes. Comparing scores one can appreciate how Glass has tried to synthesize these different experiences. Beautiful.

[belamelageza]

one has feeling, that the entire movie was made for this music. Movietrack from masterpiece of maestro, Philip Glass.

[rob1986100]

minha preferida e muito linda e muisca no meus oidos

[universoeterno1]

What HOT score! Thank you for posting it.

[DMSteller87]

Not sure how this didn't win Best Original Score back in 2002.

[Winduct]

@DMSteller87 Lord of the Rings and the Two Towers should have won but due to a new rule they didn't get a nomination so yes, I don't get it either.

[fatizoo1000]

I don't get how Meryl didn't get an oscar nomination for that role , iS IT BECAUSE SHE got an oscar nomination for Adaptation. then she couldn't have an another one ?

[Kessler1996]

@fatizoo1000 Although, thank Christ, Streep did deservingly receive a BAFTA nomination for Best Actress.

I find it incredibly to find any fault in the sublime, universal talents of Meryl Streep.

[ROAS6986]

@Kessler1996 Also, remember Kidman was nominated in the Leading Catefory for the same film with Julianne Moore for "Far from Heaven". It was a strange case of votes placement and campaign. I remember a note which said if we considerate the screentime as a factor of categorization, Kidman has the least acount of time and Streep the opposite. Finally, it would be the second time that two actresses are nominated twice at the same year after 1993. but the first with two actresses at the same film

[ChocolateGagaMonster]

A masterpiece. People judge things by how fast the tempo is, by how many notes there are, to find how great the song is, how much work is put into it. However, a true musical artist knows that a song is based upon its emotion, its tone, its own unique melody. An endless list.

[Gabetris57]

Unforgettable. As soundtrack it' a mesterpiece.

[darbyesther]

nicole great!!

[moulinRED]

Dear Leonard. To look life in the face. Always to look life in the face and to know it for what it is. At last to know it. To love it for what it is, and then, to put it away. Leonard. Always the years between us. Always the years. Always the love. Always the hours.

[MsBibor]

@moulinRED

Does anybody know where this text can be found? In a letter or one of the books of Virginia Woolf maybe? It is in the film, I know, but as far as I know, it is not in Cunningham's book. 

[moulinRED]

@MsBibor Wikiquote the hours

[MsBibor]

@moulinRED Thank you. But as I said, I know it was in the film, I know where it can be heard, and who says it. My question was that where is it from originally? (Since it is not in Cunningham's book.) It sounds like something from Virginia Woolf but I may be wrong and scriptwriters wrote it...

[moulinRED]

@MsBibor I'm french so i'll try to exlain at you that : i've a friend and she bought a book with all the letters of Virginia Woolf. Less boring that Mrs Dalloway

[MsBibor]

@moulinRED Ok, I see, thanks a lot! I can imagine that reading the letters of someone is exciting. :) (Especially if that someone was a genius.) I don't think Mrs. Dalloway is boring though! Oh no... it is not...

[moulinRED]

@MsBibor Maybe not ...

But for your consideration people, please, read SARAH KANE & VIRGINIA WOOLF

Sarah Kane : 4.48 Psychosis ... One of the most brillant, masterpiece book write in this earth

[pnyc1969]

@moulinRED Did you see Isabelle Huppert in the stage adaptation of Psychose 4:48? It was wonderful.

[pnyc1969]

@moulinRED Come to think of it, it's interesting you mention Psychose along with "The Hours" since I consider Julianne Moore and Isabelle Huppert to be similar in many ways: physically, daring in their choice of roles and a tendency to play women in the throes of unraveling. They are my favorite actresses. Julianne especially for "The Hours" and "Far From Heaven" and Isabelle for "The Ceremony" and "The Piano Teacher". Just riveting actresses.

[Jadeismycolor]

Wonderful peice of music. Thrilling- and completely... no words can describe the intense feeling in this music. No doubt my jaw is on the floor. So complex...

[animaghimire101]

This music is intensely compelling. Glass is one of my favorite composers, along with Dario Marinelli, Howard Shore, and Hans Zimmer. I am never seen this movie, but the music has encouraged me watch it.

[Soph192]

Pretty faggy comments up in here. This music is awful. haters

[JoHeartsArt]

@Soph192 i feel pitty for you.. you'll never know the feeling of recognizing the genuin art!

[GemoVII]

It doesn't express just suffering, it's more like restlessness, torment, impotence..

[psicolizzata]

if suffering had a melody it would be this one

[requiem4neverland]

Its my birthday today and I started my day with this music.... and I am a man! Im lovin' it

[CossacksChampion]

This is music is like a dream !

[zoofiesta]

beautifull theme...

[emilaaa8]

it's just... wooow. amazing job

[Terina111]

I listen to this song over and over again. Amazing! Thanks for it.

[thethikboy]

A rare insight into the woman's microcosm -

[RawwrCupcake]

Definitely one of my favorite pieces out of the whole soundtrack. ♥

[mrdanyboytoy]

Beyond my expectations. One of the best's soundtracks I've ever heard! <3

[Galleon12]

I totally agree, more eloquent than thousands of words and this is indeed the power of music. This is much more than words could ever express.

[fabiobcm]

When sadness is like beauty.

[SuperWomanSunshine]

Whaaaa, c'est vraiment de la bonne musique *O* !!

[esoulhat]

Ce film m'a profondément marqué!

[TheEndOfTheRainbow]

who is playing this?

i know philip composed it, but who is performing?

[matox6608]

Say, is this the Original Score? Because i have it and the my version of "Morning Passages" has no strings, just piano. And I can't find it anywhere on youtube.

Nice upload, thanx for sharing :)

[Castellanox7]

There are two versions of the Soundtrack, a piano only version which Glass released later, and the movie score that included the rest of the orchestra.

[enteroentero]

i love this music, it's so evocative.

... the power of music, more eloquent than thousand words

[lavozdecataratas]

this song is amazing, and i loved the movie it made me cry a lot

(my mom was planning a party when i made her watch this movie, after that she never organised a party again) :S

[slinkiesandpie22]

Stunning, lyrical music. More passionate than words could ever express. Thank you Mr. Philip Glass.

[Soph192]

@slinkiesandpie22 lolfag

[amazing551000]

@slinkiesandpie22 you're right

[konrad1000]

I absolutely love this piece!

[sergioydavid1]

I love the movie and it's soundtrack. I have a bit of Virginia, I'm living a life that doesn't belong to me. My real life has been taken away from me.

[b56123]

The Book, The Film and the Soundtrack are all so moving and there is a great deepth to each. Such amazing work, the Acting was out of this world all three women were faultless in their portrals of their complex characters.

[jadams110]

Julianne Moore was nominated and, of course, Nicole Kidman won. I thought Meryl Streep was chilling. The look on her face when Ed Harris goes flying out the window. Brings me to tears every time.

[Markko144]

meryl streep is gay

[mefeline]

Julianne Moore should receive Oscar Best Supporting for this heavy, discreet, sweet, suppressed, cruel, sad, strong role.

[pnyc1969]

@mefeline

I second the motion! You can't take your eyes off her in this role. By far the most affecting of the three.

[johnyzero2000]

@mefeline Agreed 100% Catherine Zeta Jones didn't deserve to win for Chicago that award should have been Julianne Moore's.

[pannaapres]

@mefeline I agree, but my fav one was Meryl Streep.

[mefeline]

@pannaapres any particular reason? :D

[pannaapres]

@mefeline - Everytime she appears on the screen I'm shivering. Hope, you understand my English. :)

[diaboliqueGR]

@mefeline how true! but it seems that oscar's policy is in favour for those who put a mould on.... (like in the Monster etc...)

[99Mary99]

@mefeline

yes!!!!

[Piksukka98]

@mefeline

Well, Meryl Streep too... <3

[99Mary99]

@mefeline

Ditto!!!!

[alexvollrathsmith]

Really?

[hktrpanito]

you didin't

'CAUSE I DID!!!!!!

LOOOLZ!!!

[missmephistopheles]

One of the most amazing, beautiful books I've ever read. Changed my world. I think Philip Glass totally captured the spirit of the book in this soundtrack,Thank you Michael Cunningham and Philip Glass.

[zacattack214]

Moving film and beautiful music.

[EurovisionFan1990]

This film is soooo great, also because of its beautiful music!

[rextrebor]
