Music minimalism

thrihyrneForgot to mention this in my last post about "I Am Love," which is that the composer John Adams composed the score. I think most people here know that I'm a fan of minimalist music; while an undergrad (I'm a music history/theory major, though at a liberal arts school, so the actual degree might not matter as much as some), I was given the nickname "Phyllis Glass" due to my deep affection for Philip Glass' music. I had to have an arrangement with my freshman and sophomore roommate about playing his music: I could only play it when she wasn't there. :P Anyway, this particular genre has come back into my life unexpectedly in the past couple of days due to watching "I Am Love" and now today watching a documentary about the New York City Ballet's trip to perform Balanchine's works in Russia in '03. I recognized the music for some of the choreography done by Jerome Robbins, as it's Glass' "Dance Music," a CD I owned back in the past but is now on my iTunes. Or I think it is…
Anyway, I'm enjoying my downtime here at the house, all quiet, just me and the cats and my knitting and documentaries and other movies and books.
