I like to think that I coined the whole "my counterparts already covered X, Y, and Z, so I won't belabor the point" thing and that anyone else who does it is just poorly aping me. With that in mind, here are some dubious-quality pictures from the Glass Q&A.
I enjoyed Glass' comments on the composition process and the relationship between composer and performer (especially the extent to which he advocates the latter finding one of the former and loving him and never letting go), and his delivery of same had this "master on the mountain" feel to it which was as entertaining as his answers themselves. Of course, the point wasn't strictly to be entertaining, but still!
If you can't tell in the above "image", AC was as giddy as a schoolgirl pretty much the entire time.Also, you can't have Philip Glass' music. He said so.
