I found this at http://www.canoe.ca/JamMusic/ (if any of you care)... --- Sunday, February 23, 1997 "HEROES" SYMPHONY By DAVE VEITCH Calgary Sun "HEROES" SYMPHONY -- Phillip Glass (Point Music): To this day, David Bowie and Brian Eno's 1977 album "Heroes" remains one of rock's most chilling and bleak recordings. Neo-classical composer Glass adapts six songs from this avant-garde classic for the symphony, replacing Bowie and Eno's icy synth soundscapes with warmer orchestral sounds and liberally changing the original's melodies and harmonics (though they're still recognizable) to fit his own means. By doing so, Glass hasn't merely orchestrated "Heroes"; he has respectfully reinvented the work. You'll never hear the original album the same way again.
