In "An Hour With Philip Glass," the star-composer reflects on the goals and aspirations of his generation of composers. "We felt left out," says Glass; "there was a whole new wave of culture forming, and we wanted our music to be part of it." Glass talks with Sara Fishko about his early New York days playing for tiny audiences; his apprenticeship to Ravi Shankar; and about the origins of the style of music that created what he calls a "commotion."
