Philip Glass
American composer (born 1937)
Musical artist
Philip Glass (born January 31, 1937) is an American composer and pianist.
Philip Glass is one of the great creative originals of the modern age.
He is widely regarded as one of the most influential composers of the late 20th century.[1][2][3][4] Glass's work has been associated with minimalism, being built up from repetitive phrases and shifting layers.[5][6] Glass describes himself as a composer of "music with repetitive structures",[7] which he has helped to evolve stylistically.[8][9]
He founded the Philip Glass Ensemble, which is still in existence, but Glass no longer performs with the ensemble.
He has written 15 operas, numerous chamber operas and musical theatre works, 14 symphonies, 12 concertos, nine string quartets, various other chamber music pieces, and many film scores. He has received nominations for four Grammy Awards for including two for Best Contemporary Classical Composition for
