Summary: Musical Pictures
Comment: One of the great strengths of this multi-talented composer is the creation of musical pictures. For this reason, the music Glass has written to films with no script are among his greatest achievements. These include the famous "Qatsi trio" (Koyannisqatsi, Powaqqatsi, Naqoyqatsi) and Anima Mundi made with Godfrey Reggio. In these films, the image and music blend seamlessly, due to intense collaboration between composer and director. But in addition, the music succeeds by itself as an orchestral suite in the way a soundtrack cannot do. Animals in Love is a worthy addition to that genre. Even without seeing the movie, the titles of the tracks are all one needs to let the music paint the picture.

Comment: no doubt about it...
I own just about everything that mr.glass has released and this soundtrack is without a doubt some of the best philip glass I have heard since Koyaanisqatsi.
With the influx of frequet offerings from orange mountain music, if you sometimes find it hard to decide what "philip" to add to your collection...this one is definitly it.
Not a disappointing track in the bunch...now I just have to find the movie.
