4.0 out of 5 stars Philip Glass, Of beauty and light
Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2008
This set is great, I love 3 out of the 4 albums; the 3 being his music, and the 4th being some type of cover album, of which I only gave one listen, but it didn't impress me.
Anyway, I recommend it for the other three. They are great to listen to while cooking, working, sewing, having dinner, or just relaxing.
Cheers!

3.0 out of 5 stars good selections but questionable 4th disc
Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2008
I have not bought this set, but I have heard all the music on it from other sources. The symphonies are good, but I was not sure what was on every disc since there is no listing on Amazon. I went to the Naxos website to see the track listings for the 4 cd's, and the 4th one had a listing of compostions by people other than Philip Glass. I am not sure if this is a mistake, or if the 4th disc actually has other music. It is questionable to say the least, so I am not going to buy this.

Of Beauty & Light: Music of Ph
So if you enjoy completely emersing yourself in Philip Glass this is your CD. The beautiful repetiveness is marvelous. Philip Glass may possibly be an acquired taste but once you've experienced his music & like it you will want more & more.

4.0 out of 5 stars Unconditional fan of Glass and a welcomed surprise
Reviewed in Canada on November 1, 2009

This package include 3 CDs about Philip Glass and 1 CD where only one piece is from Glass.

The music from Glass always inspires me and this collection allowed me to discover new pieces. The recording and the execution are quite well. However, I had a mixed surprise when I listened the 4 pieces named "Company" because I had the opportunity to compare with the work of Angele Dubeau and La Pieta. The latter is something really special and I would recommend anybody to buy it and enjoy.

The last CD is "Rebellion". I was quite sad to discover that only one piece was from Philip Glass, but when I listened to it, I was just delighted. All composers are really interesting; maybe many took a part of their inspiration from Glass but they all have their own personality. If you want to test yourself in your ability to listen really great modern classic music, this a fabulous occasion.
