A cultural and artistic giant, Glass is an iconoclast of contemporary composition - operas, symphonies, and much else. He returns to KPC for a rare solo piano performance. Through his operas, his symphonies, his compositions for his own ensemble, and his wide-ranging collaborations with artists ranging from Twyla Tharp to Allen Ginsberg, Woody Allen to David Bowie, Philip Glass has had an extraordinary and unprecedented impact upon the musical and intellectual life of his times.
