    What is funny (or not so) with YT is that the number of views has NOTHING to do with the quality of the content of the videos - in fact this is the contrary.
    Thank you for making us less stupid by sharing these videos.

      Judge Fredd Interest in music histrory, or specific musicians for that matter, isn't a valid argument for your interest to be more inteligent than other people's interests. It's just more socially accepted as sophisticated, to be interested in Glass rather than Eminem. But tell me why? Why is it _actually_ a more interlectual subject?

    The question about collaboration led to a beautiful distillation (around 1:05:00)
    -- "Text, music, movement, image ... All collaboration comes from that"

    Enjoy some trolling here:
    Top three reasons there's not another flute player for the piece:
    3. No one could possibly play this piece but Claire Chase.
    2. Claire Chase can only play this piece with a recording of herself -- in order to 'get it right'.
    1. Claire Chase can't find anyone who can put up with her pretentious, pixie-dancing, ego-maniacal, not-a-very-good-listener, self-centered, yet very good but soul-less playing.
    Maybe it's all three, but I'm pretty sure someone else could play the piece. I've done it, but I'd never received a MacArthur fellowship...damn...

    That part where the girl explains how playing some pieces takes her to some deep meditative state which you need in order to play them, and Glass is like "Yeah, well you need to pay attention, if mediation is paying attention for you, it´ll work". I liked that. Young people and their magical land vs. old with their feet firmly on the ground.

      It doesn't, it give different perspective to people and would be one the meaning behind creating art. Good art is a mix of the two: contrived and spontaneous. Pure technicians and pure improvisators aren't usually widely appreciated.

      Actually a some of us don't, particularly those who are actually familiar with the broad range of contemporary music. He's really not that big of a deal. You want a big deal? Check out Gyorgy Ligeti.

    How much did Nadia Boulanger charge her students? I Love Philip Glass mostly his earlier music but it's often kind of odd -- his story sometimes seems kind of strange. Like don't people have to try out for Juilliard or be accepted? Wasn't it pretty expensive? It sounds like you just said I want to study here and they said okay. I thought it had a great reputation going back at least to the 1950s. Nadia was also probably very well known when he studied with her.

    Interviewers and journalists have been remiss in not asking Philip Glass a very important question. Does he or does he not know that his work Itaipu celebrates an ecological disaster? The Itaipu Dam, constructed on the Paraná River without any public input during the Brazilian military dictatorship, drowned forever, upriver from the dam project, a spectacular series of waterfalls called in Portuguese Sete Quedas (Seven Falls). These falls had an even larger volume of water than the famous Iguaçu Falls. While in Brazil where he visited Itaipu and was wined and dined by Brazilian television soap opera stars, Glass apparently made no attempt to learn about the environmental impacts of the project. Brazil's most famous poet of the time, Carlos Drummond de Andrade, wrote a poem that was an elegy to the forever lost natural wonder that the clueless composer disregarded.
