About
Philip Morris Glass (born January 31, 1937) is an American composer and pianist. He is widely regarded as one of the most influential composers of the late 20th century. Glass's work has been associated with minimalism, being built up from repetitive phrases and shifting layers. He described himself as a composer of "music with repetitive structures", which he has helped to evolve stylistically.
Glass founded the Philip Glass Ensemble in 1968. He has written 15 operas, numerous chamber operas and musical theatre works, 15 symphonies, 12 concertos, nine string quartets, various other chamber music pieces, and many film scores. He has received nominations for four Grammy Awards, including two for Best Contemporary Classical Composition for Satyagraha (1987) and String Quartet No. 2 (1988). He has received three Academy Award for Best Original Score nominations for Martin Scorsese's Kundun (1997), Stephen Daldry's The Hours (2002), and Richard Eyre's Notes on a Scandal (2006). He also composed the scores for Koyaanisqatsi (1982), Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters (1985), Hamburger Hill (1987), The Thin Blue Line (1988), Candyman (1992), The Truman Show (1998), and The Illusionist (2006).
Glass is known for composing the operas Einstein on the Beach (1976), Satyagraha (1980), Akhnaten (1983), The Voyage (1992), and The Perfect American (2013). He also wrote the scores for Broadway productions such as the revivals of The Elephant Man (2002), The Crucible (2016), and King Lear (2019). For the last he won the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Music in a Play.
Glass has received many accolades, including a BAFTA Award, a Drama Desk Award, and a Golden Globe Award, as well as nominations for three Academy Awards, four Grammy Awards, and a Primetime Emmy Award. He has also received the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in 1995, the National Medal of Arts in 2010, the Kennedy Center Honors in 2018, and the Grammy Trustees Award in 2020.

Philip Glass, né le 31 janvier 1937 à Baltimore dans le Maryland, est un musicien et compositeur de musique contemporaine américain. Il est considéré comme l'un des compositeurs les plus influents de la fin du XXe siècle. Il est, avec ses contemporains, La Monte Young, Terry Riley et Steve Reich, l'un des pionniers et l'un des représentants les plus éminents de la musique minimaliste, notamment de l'école répétitive, et de la musique classique des États-Unis.
Si ses premières œuvres (jusqu'en 1974) sont typiquement répétitives et minimalistes, elles montreront, par la suite, une évolution stylistique. Il préfèrera utiliser, pour les œuvres suivantes, l'expression « musique avec structures répétitives », indiquant que l'aspect répétitif n'est plus prépondérant. Ses dernières œuvres sont très éloignées du courant minimaliste et, actuellement, il se décrit lui-même comme un compositeur classique, rompu à l'harmonie et au contrepoint, ayant étudié Jean-Sébastien Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven et Franz Schubert.
Il a composé des œuvres pour ensemble, des opéras, des symphonies, des concertos, des musiques de film et des œuvres pour soliste.
Il est le compositeur vivant dont les opéras sont les plus joués au monde.
