Very good, but actually I think this fails to do justic to the microvariativity in Glass's music, a better representation of which might be along the lines of:- There was a composer called Glass Phillip Glass PhillipGl ass Phil lipglass Phil lipGl ass Ph illipGlass PhilGlasslip PhiGl llip Glass Phass illip Gl ip Phill assGl PhillipGlass Or some such. In my mind's cinema, I see Phil in a film trailer as an Arnie-style action hero minimalist come to save the Music World from Maximalist Excess and Overdevelopment with one of those hoarse urgent voice-overs: "They wanted harmonic counterpoint... they reckoned without: The Arpeggiatooooor... Just when you thought it was safe to change chord again...". I obviously have too much time on my hands ;-) alan On Mon, 21 Feb 2005 14:13:57 +0100 ersatz-noddy <noddy@ersatzdesign.com> wrote:
