So, here I am working in the garage, I'm building a replica 19th century field camera tripod and listening to Philip Glass, Piano Concerto III.
As I began to cut the wood stock down to size, the music started.
Only hearing this once I'm my life, about 2 hours ago on the radio in my truck, I didn't know what the beginning would sound like because, earlier, all I heard was the last five minutes of the last movement.....and I was taken by what I heard.
I pulled into a parking lot and stopped to listen. I couldn't move, I honestly didn't want to.
It almost moved me to tears, really.
There are only two songs that have ever done that to me. The 1812 Overture on the 4th of July, and our National Anthem. This, to me, is as powerful as it gets.
When the 3rd movement started, I had to stop the saw and listen. I closed my eyes, and listened.
It's 85° in the garage and sweat is rolling off me as I sat listening.
Wanting more, wanting this moment in music to never end.
This is what music is about....to me.
Lovely comment. The adagio portion is gorgeous, isn’t it? May I suggest Mahler’s 5th? Gustav Mahler’s fifth symphony destroys me every time. If you’ve never heard it, please listen to it just once. It also is unforgettable…

Thank you for your suggestion.
No, I haven't heard it before. At least, I dont think so.
I'll go right now and listen to it.
@The-Portland-Daily-Blink
Ok, I listened and watched it and enjoyed it very much.
Thank you for your suggestion. It will be in my top three for now on.
It still amazes my how one person sat at a piano Forte, most likely, and wrote this out note for note.
I think my music passion really jumped when I walked through Mozart's home and bedroom where he wrote his early works.
Thanks again.
The first time I heard this piece was on XM Symphony Hall yesterday. I had just gotten into my car and, inevitably, wanted to change the station and listen to the NCAA chatter on XMU.
However, the third movement was then playing and I was paralyzed. I could not flick my wrist to change the station
Drawn in. Hypnotized.
The low strings made for a sonorous, incessant transport to its conclusion.
Reminded me of the Sibelius Fourth Symphony final movement.
I now need to “discover” more Philip Glass.
Mesmerized.

I did same! Sat in my driveway to hear it completely! Enchanting!
Similar story, enchanted
Same, enchanting
@@jondouglas571 That just happened to me too. Could not leave the car. Too beautiful and moving...not the car. :)
Same thing happened to me today, September 2, 2023.
Turned off my car engine and sat in my driveway listening.
Glass Piano Concerto 3. Wow, Glass is amazing! I have seen his opera, Ahkenaten, twice -- it has become a favorite. Admittedly, i did not truly get it until i put on my best headphones, laid on the couch, and just listened and let the music and rhythms take me to another place. There are echoes from Ahkenaten in this work.
Thankful to live in a world where somebody is still writing classical music this beautiful..
"classical"? What is that supposed to mean?
@@FleuveAlphee PULEEEZ don't open THAT one! Substitute
" symphonic"or any other word for CLASSICAL and turn the page. I'm looking for info about THIS concerto, buy none do I find. I enjoyed it, but not the Glass I like. Remove the " Phililip Glass" from a glass composition and Whats left? This I guess. Mediocre music that doesn't derverve repeating over ad infinitum...
The beauty of his minimalist work is they induce a trance but the mind of the hearing takes them on a trip. This piece , with no trance, does not have enough to say to keep us grounded for so long. With satyagraha for example, the music produces a level of trance so profound that it's stunning. Ask them why they done know, or they can't describe it. It's so individual. Glass used the phenomena brilliantly. Genius. Now he is writing "serious" music, but his thoughts just don't stand on their own. Come back, and make a new launch pad for for all your friends who understood what your music was about
💯
@@FleuveAlpheeThis piece IS classical music. You might not want to advertise that you don’t understand the distinction. If you don’t fully comprehend the different genres of music, there is always Google.
@@FleuveAlphee If you don't know what "classical" music means, just Google it and you'll find hundreds of references and much more information than anybody here has time to provide. If you do that, you'll find that this piece clearly fits the most commonly accepted definitions of classical music.
Oh my Gosh, this is exquisite…
Great performance.
Very good Musicians.
Philip Glass is one of the Greatest Composer in history of MUSIC.
Good to know...Let's review that, say, 50 years from now.
@@FleuveAlphee Nobody else has written pieces like Einstein on the Beach, Koyaanisqatsi, Monsters of Grace, The Photographer.
Une écriture très personnelle qui se reconnait très vite. Philip Glass est un compositeur contemporain incontournable.
Some may reduce Glass's music to 'Mood' music. I will concur. He is the master at sustaining the mood: a single experience within a prolonged interval of time.
Thanks to Symphony Hall Sirius XM for airing this uniquely captivating music.
Movement II makes me feel like floating in space🙌🏻 beautifully played 👏🏻 bravo🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you so much for posting this. This is one of my favorite pieces but I've never seen it performed live.
Brilliantly played, soloist and orchestra! A demanding and beautiful piece by one of the great composers of all time.
Very beautiful
What I love about XM radio: exposure to new music like this glorious piece.
What a piece of music!!! So amazing and so Beautiful!! Thak you for sharing, can't stop playing over and over!!!
You do that too?!
Finally the whole thing on RUclips !!!!!
Perfect piece. Well done.
This Glass concerto says it. Mov III (for Arvo Pärt) from17.55, particularly. A Covid requiem.
Heard this on NPR a couple nights ago or was it last night? but I stuck in my mind and I found it here and it is as nice as I remember it. Great to watch live music performed in 2020 during the pandemic.
Now play Music in Twelve Parts.
Bravo!
how does it have only 1582 views ?
Coz it always takes time for any video to reach big numbers and this had only been here for a few weeks at that point. Even the greatest pieces are on 1,582 views at some point on their journey into the stratosphere. Trust me, there is no skipping straight from 1,581 to 1,583 views by any piece. Not gonna happen. Heh.
Pues Glass toca 1582 veces las mismas melodías,repite,clona,reproduce ,se autoplagia continuamente,siempre lo mismo: un disco rayado...igual suena agrable el homenaje a Pärt,es noble el Finale...7 puntos,le doy a este PianoConcerto 3.
Who else came here through Iggy Pop on 6Music in '24?
Sounds like pedalling / clarity would need work for any pianists learning this
nobody does this like simone but I think it was a noble effort and worthy of respect
didn't he write it for simone?
