I enjoy listening to Glass while studying.

These YouTube comments are thoughtful. For that, I applaud each and every one of you.

Most of those cars, tanks and airplanes are probably obsolete now, and serve as scrap.

The mountains are practically unchanged.

[xudnoxaj]

[a01087483]

@xudnoxaj Eh :P.... funny considering he didnt play ANY music so not really the best analogy here :B

Repetition is an important device here. Isn't one of the themes of this piece one of the monolithic themes of C.20th arts; that 'the earth abides forever'? In fact repeated structures is a repeated dynamic in classical music. Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Satie. An eclectic smorgasbord of pop-composers have used the repeated structure for centuries and I can certainly see why.

@DadaistTheater -"WTF did i just saw..."

A few good apples give the whole bushel a good name, eh?

[TheSmack77]

thew visuals are fine if a little ponderous. th emusic by GLass is SO weak . i mean come on people ! cheesy organ, pompous choral singing, endless repition. dear oh dear ! Steve Reich, Hecker, Janek Schaefer, Susumu Yokota, Murcof, Ligeti - ALL so much better as composers. discuss..
