Orange Mountain Music presents the Philip Glass Retrospective, a 2CD set of repertoire from the PGE's 40-year career. From a live-recording made in Monterrey Mexico in 2006, the set features music from Music in 12 Parts, In the Upper Room, Koyaanisqatsi, Einstein on the Beach, The Photographer, Glassworks and much more in its 100 plus minutes of music. The Philip Glass Ensemble was formed in the late 1960s as a vehicle for Philip Glass' new music. The image of the group, an ensemble of keyboards and woodwinds, became the iconic visual image for Philip Glass the performer. The ensemble continues to tour the world including complete performances of the seminal Music in 12 Parts and as the 'orchestra' for the most groundbreaking opera of the 20th century, Einstein on the Beach.
NOTES:
In March 2004, when The Philip Glass Ensemble went to Monterrey, Mexico, for a concert at the Auditorio Luis Eilzondo at the Instituto Tecnologico de Monterrey, we had been performing mostly music-with-film shows such as Koyaanisqatsi, Powaqqatsi, Dracula, La Belle et la Bete, and Shorts. In fact, other than some Philip Glass Ensemble Unplugged concerts we did in 2002, we hadn't done a true Ensemble concert since Singapore in 2001.
It was fun to play this repertoire again, to not have to worry about sync with picture and focus just on the music. It was like putting on old comfartable shoes. We had played all of the pieces on this program many, many times, so we had scheduled only a single rehearsal the day before the concert.
All of the early Ensemble repertoire is without percussion, written for the core group of soprano voices, 3 winds, and 3 keyboards. As Glass started to write more and more orchestral music and less music specifically for the Ensemble, as Music Director it was my job to arrange some of this music for the Ensemble to provide new repertoire, and these arrangements often included percussion. On this album, The Grid, The Photographer, Mosque and Temple, Low Symphony, and Funeral are all arrangements by me, and of those, the last three include percussion.
Although technology plays a part in the Ensemble, which uses MIDI keyboard and percussion controllers, hardware synthesizers, and computers for sample playback and keyboard mixing, every note you hear on this recording is played in real time. No sequencers or pre-recorded material (other than samples of individual notes) are used. Playing much of this music requires, above all, rhythmic precision and cohesion, and everyone must listen intently to make this happen. That's part of the challenge and part of the fun, for when it's going right it gets an exhilarating groove.
We brought along a multi-track recording system for this concert and our own engineers, Dan Dryden and Steve Erb, made the recording, performing simultaneous duty as house- en monitor-mix engineers
respectively. After we came back to New York I mixed the tracks at the Looking Glass Studios, our home base. I'm very happy that this recording is now finally being released.
