Anyway, a recent release by Simone Dinnerstein / A Far Cry,

Circles: Piano Concertos by Bach + Glass is excellent. Tracks 4-6, Piano Concerto No. 3.



Lavinia Meijer has a 2016 release entitled, The Glass Effect: The Music of Philip Glass. I thought it one of the best releases of the year. (besure toi seek out Koyaanisqatsi on the album.



This and Olafsson's 2017 release, Philip Glass: Piano Works are my current "go to" albums to wow people to the splendor of Glass.



There is soooooooooo much to recommend you need to share more of what you are looking for in Glass.



I am currently digesting his 11th symphony which arrived at my doorstep just last week... finally released.


Thank you for the recommendation. Spent all evening listening to Olafsson and Meier recordings. [emoji106]
