Philip Glass and Ravi Shankar - Passages - 06 Prashanti
16 de septiembre 2014
En las décadas de los 80 y 90 la discográfica Private Music lanzó unos discos fenomenales, a la vez que desarrolló una identidad y sonido propios. Su catálogo incluyó trabajos de titanes como Eddie Jobson, Patrick O'Hearn, Leo Kottke, Jerry Goodman, Toots Thielemans, Carlos Alomar, Suzanne Ciani y Lucia Hwong.
Una de mis producciones favoritas de Private Music es Passages, una colaboración de dos gigantes de la música, el indio cosmopolita y trotamundos Ravi Shankar y el compositor vanguardista estadounidense Philip Glass.
Dice la Wikipedia:
Passages is a collaborative chamber music studio album co-composed by Ravi Shankar and Philip Glass, released in 1990 through Atlantic Records.[1] The album's content is a hybrid of Hindustani classical musicand Glass' distinct American minimal contemporary classical style. The album reached a peak position of number three on Billboard's Top World Music Albums chart.

Terry Gross entrevista a Philip Glass
“When composer Philip Glass started performing his own music, a lot of people didn’t know what to make of it. Some people thought it sounded like the needle of a record was stuck in a groove, repeating over and over again. Some people thought it was simplistic. Some thought it was a joke. Glass says that in the ‘70s, audience members threw things at him while he was performing."
