The album brings together two artists with enormous followings: Valentina Lisitsa, with her dazzling artistry and hundreds of thousands of followers on YouTube; and Philip Glass, with his hugely popular minimalist piano music.
Here is Glass at his best – using the building blocks of minimalism to achieve a huge, inventive soundscape of musical richness and contrasts. Richly harmonic, this is a deeply evocative listening experience with revelatory performances from Lisitsa; a wonderful artist with exceptional musicality and a stunning technique.

Philip Glass composed originally the music for his Symphony No. 10 as an incidental score for the closing ceremony of Expo 2008 at Zaragoza, Spain. However, considering its original instrumentation could lead the piece to oblivion and looking at its full orchestral potential, Glass decided to orchestrate it. It is a symphony that is certainly filled with Arab and Spanish feels as the city was an important urban center in Muslim and in Modern Spain, thus musically recalling those historical moments of the city.
Philip Glass compuso originalmente la música de su décima sinfonía como una partitura incidental para la ceremonia de clausura de la Expo 2008 en Zaragoza. Sin embargo, considerando que su instrumentación original podría llevar la pieza al olvido y que la obra tenía un enorme potencial orquestal, Glass decidió orquestarla. Es una sinfonía que está llena de sentimientos arábigos e hispánicos al haber sido la ciudad un centro urbano importante tanto en la España musulmana como en la moderna, recordando de manera musical aquellos momentos históricos de la ciudad.

I've never watched the movie or listened to this album all the way through. It's my least favourite. :^)
