Now if this does not bring the hairs on the back of your neck upright – nothing will…..
“How small a thought it takes to fill a whole life!”

This is a beautiful piece; almost meditative in mood. It is minimalist not only in the resources it uses, but also in the range of musical material. Although there is a text, the voices are used primarily in an instrumental way, exploiting the quality of sound rather focusing on the clarity of the words. The vibraphones and electric organs augment the tonal quality of the voices rather than contrast with it. I like it – a lot.
I agree Louis; have you listened to some of Philip Glass? very minimalist at times.

My last contact with Philip Glass was perhaps 20 years ago. I must pay a return visit sometime.
