Thumbs up if your listening to this while studying/working..!

[SimonOrinu]

Wish I could hear this whilst being with you. You are amazing person. I truly love you.

@philglassfan As for you, Mozart was a fucking genius, and so is Mr. Glass in his own granted right. They took on completely different aesthetics; neither is at a higher level than the other.

@MrSpilknot Please keep all this bullshit about what music is scientifically proven to be beneficial off this thread. Music is music and needs no other supplementation other than itself...

Klasse - klingt wie Davide Martello

@MrSpilknot

That's because Mozart's music is crappy enough for rats to understand- Glass's is at a far higher level. Mozart is garbage!

[mgtuga]

this melody could be called "The Melody of Time",

so hard to describe the feelings of those who listen to such great demonstration of coordination between concentration and mental hability to sustain the pressure that comes out of this song..

renders anyone spechless!

[MrSpilknot]

in a test to see the effects of music on intelligence he made rats stupid enough to the point that they starved to death before finding out how to navigate a maze. while mozart on the other hand made the rats smart enough to beat the control group. mozarts rats navigated the maze twice as fast as the control group

When I play Glass's pieces, I find lose my place frequently when reading if I don't pay extra attention, the measures look the same. If I approached it similar to this pianist's interpretation, I think it would help.

The Hours was basically a 2 hour ad for anti-depressants, yet strangely, I enjoyed it and found it compelling. I can never hear this piece without thinking of Woolf walking into the river with stones in pockets.

Glass's The Hours and Etudes are his most melodic piano pieces.

i am a nooby and i can play his songs are very easy and not complicated, ostenatto and then repeats over and over again.
