Philip Glass – The Hours: Music from the Motion Picture (Vinyl) (Pre-Order)

‘This is a movie about art and how art affects life’, explains Philip Glass. ‘The story is very complicated and the music could take on a very important role in the film, as I saw it – to make it viewable, to make it comprehensible, so the stories of the three women in the film didn’t seem separate, that they were tied together. The music had to be the thread that tied the movie together. There’s no question that the emotional point of view is conveyed by the music. Music is the arrow you shoot in the air. Everything follows that’.
