he's a classical composer who's famous for his minimal/experimental works. i don't know of any Glass web sites offhand, but i'm sure any search engine would return quite a good number of them. reccomended first Glass listening: Einstein on the Beach, Piano Solo, and possibly the Secret Agent soundtrack. also, Music in 12 Parts is great, but a 3-disc box set and priced around $35. Also, if you have Aphex Twin's "I care b/c you do " Glass did the orchestral arrangments on Icct Hedral (of which his arrangements can be found by themselves on Aphex's Donkey Rhubarb CD). all that AND he was on South Park christmas special! - wells oliver : s0ewoliv@titan.vcu.edu "all these things we'll one day swallow whole and fade out again and fade out again"
