 Notes  
     Philip Glass is recognized as one of the most prominent composers
     associated with musical minimalism, the other major figures being Steve
     Reich, Terry Riley, and John Adams. His style is easily recognizable
     because of its use of repetition, particularly the repetition of small
     distinctive rhythmic and melodic cells, and its reliance on traditional
     diatonic harmonies. In some of his early works, like "Two Pages" (1967),
     the whole of the piece evolves from a single unit that expands as notes are
     added. In later works, such as the massive "Music in Twelve Parts"
     (1971-1974), expansion comes by lengthening of note values and other
     inventive processes.
     Many describe his music in the minimalist vein as mesmerizing; others hear
     it as numbingly repetitive and devoid of variety in its simplicity. The
     latter view of his style is itself simplistic and fails to take into
     account the subtleties and complexities found in the many ways Glass varies
     and shapes his material. His later styles, since the 1980s, embrace more
     than just minimalism and include a broad neo-Romanticism, with greater
     emphasis on melody and more complex harmonies. Glass is one of the most
     popular and succesful classical composers of the late 20th and early 21st
     centuries, with a broad fan base that includes both rock and classical
     enthusiasts.
