I found a very interesting video on YouTube that serves as a very quick analysis of Philip Glass' music. The guy in the video is cheeky and a bit of a clown, but it's very interesting to learn about these core ideas that appear in so much of Glass' music.

Now I want to try playing some of this on the guitar.

Some of the comments on the YouTube page are a bit nasty. Some hardcore Glass fans are offended by the video's flippant attitude about the supposed "simplicity" of Glass' music. But simplicity is not a failing. Just listen to the music. There is great beauty there.
