A Quick Diversion on Philip Glass
Posted by Jeremy Freed, November 2, 2009 9:36 AM

If you're like me, you spend way too much time trolling YouTube for nuggets of awesomeness like this. Hopefully, by my posting it here, I can save you some valuable time in your workday. Or, at least, give you a jumping off point for more video watching.



The clip is from a 2005 documentary called Looking Glass, about the composer Philip Glass, and sounds to me like it's narrated by Werner Herzog. I couldn't confirm the latter, but Glass is truly a fascinating guy, and this clip gives a brief window into his brilliance.

More on Philip Glass here.
