Bruckner Orchestra of Linz conducted by/ Orquesta Bruckner de Linz dirigida por Dennis Russell Davies.
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.

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.

_________________________________________________
Over the last fifteen years, Philip Glass has defined a new form of biographical opera. There was never any doubt that he would be the ideal composer for Mishima, a mosaic film biography. I wanted a score which would unite the film's disparate elements and propel it forward. Such a score, by definition, would be a distinct, cohesive composition.
I only wondered how to induce Glass. Money was out of the question: the film was already an egregiously under-budgeted labor of love production. I opted for a soft sell. (I've subsequently learned how remarkably resistant Philip is to a hard one.) I simply gave him the script and all the materials by and about Mishima at my disposal.
Philip responded enthusiastically and after several pre-production meetings and a trip to the Tokyo locations, wrote a score from the script as he would from a libretto. With Kurt Munkacsi and Michael Riesman he recorded a temp synthesizer version.
I edited the film to this temp score, altering it as necessary: cutting, expanding and repeating cues. I then played the edited film and score for Philip. He rewrote the music to fit the film's now-precise specifications and recorded it with a full orchestra. Later, he supervised last-minute changes during the final mix.
In keeping with the original concept, Glass has re-edited the score as a distinct musical entity. His Mishima equally serves the film and stands alone.
— Paul Schrader
