Product DescriptionGlassworks was my debut record on an major record label. This music was written for the recording studio, though a number of the pieces soon found their way into the Philip Glass Ensemble repertory. A six movement work, Glassworks was intended to introduce my music to a more general audience than had been familiar with it up to then. - Philip Glass Thirty years later, Glassworks had never been performed live in its entirety in New York City until Signal asked Michael Riesman to arrange the classic album for live performance. The concert took place at New York's le Poisson Rouge with Riesman and Signal on April 12, 2010 with Brad Lubman conducting. This disc also includes Signal's take on Glass work from 1969, Music in Similar Motion.
