American composer and musician, Philip Glass, was born on January 31, 1937 in Baltimore, Maryland. He studied music with notable figures such as Vincent Pershichetti, Darius Milhaud, and Nadia Boulanger. Glass's perspective on composition changed after collaborating with Ravi Shankar in 1966. In 1968, he founded the Philip Glass Ensemble to perform his own music and later started Chatham Square Production in 1971 to release his work.
Throughout his career, Glass has made significant contributions to the world of contemporary classical music. His unique style blends elements of minimalism with complex rhythmic patterns and repetitive structures. With a prolific output spanning across various genres including opera, film scores, symphonies, and chamber music, Glass has established himself as one of the most influential composers of our time.
Publishing under [l266896], Philip Glass continues to captivate audiences worldwide with his innovative compositions that push the boundaries of traditional musical conventions.

Philip Glass's passion to unravel the mystery of what music really is has been present throughout his entire career. He has expressed this passion through his travels around the world, engaging with musicians of different ethnic and cultural backgrounds and creating new music with them. In 2012, Glass journeyed into the mountains of Mexico to interact with the Wixarika people. Concert of the Sixth Sun gives us a glimpse into this culture's unique world of mystery and spiritual beauty. Guitarist Roberto Carillo Cocío and violinist Daniel Medina de la Rosa are joined by the composer at the piano.
