    So, here I am working in the garage, I'm building a replica 19th century field camera tripod and listening to Philip Glass, Piano Concerto III.
    As I began to cut the wood stock down to size, the music started.
    Only hearing this once I'm my life, about 2 hours ago on the radio in my truck, I didn't know what the beginning would sound like because, earlier, all I heard was the last five minutes of the last movement.....and I was taken by what I heard.
    I pulled into a parking lot and stopped to listen. I couldn't move, I honestly didn't want to.
    It almost moved me to tears, really.
    There are only two songs that have ever done that to me. The 1812 Overture on the 4th of July, and our National Anthem. This, to me, is as powerful as it gets.
    When the 3rd movement started, I had to stop the saw and listen. I closed my eyes, and listened.
    It's 85° in the garage and sweat is rolling off me as I sat listening.
    Wanting more, wanting this moment in music to never end.
    This is what music is about....to me.

      Lovely comment. The adagio portion is gorgeous, isn’t it? May I suggest Mahler’s 5th? Gustav Mahler’s fifth symphony destroys me every time. If you’ve never heard it, please listen to it just once. It also is unforgettable…

      Thank you for your suggestion.
      No, I haven't heard it before. At least, I dont think so.
      I'll go right now and listen to it.

      Ok, I listened and watched it and enjoyed it very much.
      Thank you for your suggestion. It will be in my top three for now on.
      It still amazes my how one person sat at a piano Forte, most likely, and wrote this out note for note.
      I think my music passion really jumped when I walked through Mozart's home and bedroom where he wrote his early works.
      Thanks again.

    The first time I heard this piece was on XM Symphony Hall yesterday. I had just gotten into my car and, inevitably, wanted to change the station and listen to the NCAA chatter on XMU.
    However, the third movement was then playing and I was paralyzed. I could not flick my wrist to change the station
    Drawn in. Hypnotized.
    The low strings made for a sonorous, incessant transport to its conclusion.
    Reminded me of the Sibelius Fourth Symphony final movement.
    I now need to “discover” more Philip Glass.

      @@FleuveAlphee PULEEEZ don't open THAT one! Substitute
      " symphonic"or any other word for CLASSICAL and turn the page. I'm looking for info about THIS concerto, buy none do I find. I enjoyed it, but not the Glass I like. Remove the " Phililip Glass" from a glass composition and Whats left? This I guess. Mediocre music that doesn't derverve repeating over ad infinitum...
      The beauty of his minimalist work is they induce a trance but the mind of the hearing takes them on a trip. This piece , with no trance, does not have enough to say to keep us grounded for so long. With satyagraha for example, the music produces a level of trance so profound that it's stunning. Ask them why they done know, or they can't describe it. It's so individual. Glass used the phenomena brilliantly. Genius. Now he is writing "serious" music, but his thoughts just don't stand on their own. Come back, and make a new launch pad for for all your friends who understood what your music was about

    Some may reduce Glass's music to 'Mood' music. I will concur. He is the master at sustaining the mood: a single experience within a prolonged interval of time.

      Coz it always takes time for any video to reach big numbers and this had only been here for a few weeks at that point. Even the greatest pieces are on 1,582 views at some point on their journey into the stratosphere. Trust me, there is no skipping straight from 1,581 to 1,583 views by any piece. Not gonna happen. Heh.
