A giant in the classical minimalist movement, Philip Glass revisits some of his most loved pieces on his latest compilation, Solo. Today, on his 87th birthday, we witness the music from the very piano which helped create some of his most prominent works as he absorbed the energy of the city in his NYC apartment. ‘Opening” is a widely revered composition from the 1982 album Glassworks.
