@benadude for me, it's easiest to think of them not as separate ostinato rhythms, but as one compound rhythm played over two hands. try tapping the rhythm on your desk (or something else that produces no pitch) and you'll hear what the resulting rhythm is; this made playing this common Glass pattern much easier for me.

@MasterChieeff Me neither. I was introduced to Philip Glass' work via recommendation or comparison to music I've made years ago. It only made my interested in classical or minimalism. both of which Philip Glass tackled, peak.

This music was used in a Richard Gere movie some years ago.....and it was very effective.

Oops! A small mistake. In 2:07 you typed the Bb (finger with the ring) when it should be the Ab (first is Bb, second is Ab). That's the beauty of this part. Bb, Ab, then G.
