New - Glass, Philip - Philip Glass Solo - LP

Philip Glass will share a new album, Philip Glass Solo, via Orange Mountain Music. The collection is an intimate portrait of the renowned pianist at 84, as he takes a new look at some of his most enduring and beloved piano works. Philip Glass Solo was recorded at a time when the world was undergoing a major shift -- for Glass, that shift manifested in going from a busy tour and premiere schedule to time spent at home during the COVID-19 pandemic.

It is his most personal record to date, offering a snapshot of his life, and a portrait of daily practice over eight decades through several cherished works.
