Glass, Philip mvt3 violin concerto

[priority1951]

look up the term minimalistic music, and this violin concerto is what it represents!

[lb88ful]

Most Philip Glass makes me think of documentaries about the universe.

The violinist has a lot of intonation troubles through bars on 14 section. (3:00). They are indeed brutal.

[K0MP0NIST]

This is actually a seven-minute etude of chords, followed by a melodic coda.

[HomicidalHeidi]

Why does this feel like some nine minute long cadenza...just with background parts, lol.

i think its interesting for a concerto like this to have the violinist not really even have a melody. i find it quite unique.

@ch252525 I think the idea is that he's showing off how well he can play it ;)

...also, try tapping the beat to this one! lol
