What would we do without Glass? his music makes me feel like i am not here! it allows me to dream, unlike the majority of music his minimalist style doesnt get bogged down in the detail and gives an overall mood, which allows the audience to appreciate it fully! Philip Glass is a LEGEND!!!

you play the rythm so goodi really love it (but maybe let it sound a bit more dreamy, that sounds also beautiful

From the first notes I could tell that yours was among the absolute best versions of this piece. Maybe because you are composer yourself but you understand the rhytm of this piece and play it a lot closer to how Mr. Glass himself plays it. It really benefits a lot from restraint and most performers don't quite understand it.

I admit, I have little idea what the other gentleman / lady is referring to. She's probably right, but I think it sounds fantastic just the same, one of the best versions I've heard of my favourite glass piece. Well done on all the effort it takes to learn something like this. Bravo

I've always been a fan of your Glass interpretations.. OK look, you are in a better position than I am to convince Chester Music to publish Etudes Vol. 1 Nos. 1-10!!!!! I NEED to play them! anyways great playing, you brought out all the right notes and kept a steady floe to the piece. You could've done more with the overall dynamics, it felt too consistent (mp-mf).. for example after the "chorus" (if you will) the g minor part before repeating from beginning, could've been softer. Greatwork!
