Yes, the bloggers were out in force on this one, but reading between the lines, I'm not sure that the reactions were all that positive. Philip Glass is a composer who inspires great adulation, & I attended hoping to understand what all the fuss is about. I remain unconvinced about his music.
Axel, if you do not know them, try the Eighth Symphony, the newish cello suite Songs & Poems for Cello (or Poems & Songs...can't remember which), and maybe Satyagraha. But based on Music in Twelve Parts...yeah.
Though Kosman did call it "exhausting."
