The Orion Project Philip Glass

Am happy to revisit the Orion project Philip Glass a reprise 2010-11 beginning October 2010. The first set of performances are a part of the prestigious bicentennial celebrations of the Cervantino Festival in Guajuanato/Leon, Mexico and two performances at the Bellas Artes in Mexico City.

 

Following our hugely successful 2004 – 2005 tour, the excellent KPBS American Masters documentary has just released a wonderful documentary on the composer: “A Portrait of Philip in 12 Parts.” I am featured in both a performance and interview. Hicks (who also directed  “Shine” and “Snow Falling on Cedars”) shot much of the video himself in between our tours and greenrooms. The imagery is superb, and the eclectic interviews include Woody Allen, Pandit Ravi Shankar, Chuck Close and Martin Scorsese.
