Опубликовано: 22 февр. 2015 г.Passages is collaborative chamber music studio album co-composed by Ravi Shankar and Philip Glass, released in 1990 through Atlantic Records. The album's content is a hybrid of Hindustani classical music and Glass' distinct American minimal contemporary classical style. The album reached a peak position of number three on Billboard's Top World Music Albums chart.
00:00 «Offering» (Shankar)– 9:47 09:47 «Sadhanipa» (Glass) – 8:37 18:24 «Channels and Winds» (Glass) – 8:00 26:24 «Ragas in Minor Scale» (Glass) – 7:37 34:01 «Meetings Along the Edge» (Shankar) – 8:11 42:12 «Prashanti» (Shankar) – 13:40
«Offering», the album's opening track, begins with a slow introduction before the saxophone establishes the Shankar raga melody. Two additional saxophones join, followed by an extended middle section at a faster tempo, all before returning to the starting theme. The title of the second track, «Sadhanipa», is derived from the solfège notes (swara) «Sa Dha Ni Pa» from the Indian octave (saptak) based on the first four tones of Glass' melody, «Do La Ti So» (D-B-C-A).
Allmusic's Jim Brenholts awarded the album four of five stars, calling the music «brilliant». Benholts wrote that Shankar's «smooth» style and Glass' dissonant orchestrations mixed well, and recommended Passages to fans of other minimalist composers such as John Cage, Steve Reich and Terry Riley.
