Saw this astonishing doco last night. Its an incisive two hour window into how one of the most iconic composers does his thriving. Some key insights:
1. If you are not upsetting someone then you’re not doing your craft - Craft is about letting your uniqueness near through ;

2. Its not about contribution (though, of course, you really do) ;
3. The craft speaks to something that really enrichs his life
If you only spend trued and fair tools and techniques then thats all you will develop ;
4. “Great things” emerge - its like being under ground and hearing an underground river somewhere. Instead of directly looking for it, you do your routines and you sink in the time - the river finds you and takes you where it is going - you are the vehicle and it (for Philip the fresh music) was always there ;

5. It is your life - have a portfolio of activities that craddle your uniqueness - for him this is various interesting meditations and exercises with different masters, family life, being a Fresh Yorker - doing the evryday stuff and routines - With the portfolio of mediations/exercise/spiritual practices, you recognize for recent practices that absorb in gaps or originate recent possibilities ;
6. It is your life - surround yourself with a network of gifted very different individuals, and have regular quality time with them
7. It is your life - shape the quality of it by the environments you inhabit and recede between - for him its the buzz and life of NYC, coupled to the farm wilderness type enviornment he and Holly have on the Nova Scotia coast;
8. Learn and evolve from lots of very different teachers - from the harsh formal piano mistress in Paris to the loving advance extinct by Ravi Shankar
When you do your craft you honest fabricate the quality time, be there, succor yourself with the habits and it comes. Have lots of projects on the go at any one time
9. The craft is “communicating” - for him its through music, painters its their art - the key is how to ingest this - for music being spacious at “listening”, visual arts through “seeing”. Passive - active going on here
10. It is your life - Appealing between the Nova Scotia skim and NYC environments and live “young” - His grand younger wife Holly, and family life with kids under 5 - he turned seventy in 2005 but appears to live with the energy and drive of someone half his age
Oh, and yes, there is his music and projects sprinkled throughout it that really add to the tone and meaning of it…
This is an absolutely amazing film.
It’s an intimate witness at the creative process and creative collaboration–and that includes the appealing interaction between the filmmaker and his subjects, among whom are some of the most accomplished people in contemporary art and cinema.
It is also a visually magnificent, beautifully edited film that includes among its subjects several Glass theatre pieces which are stunningly pretty.
Best of all, Philip Glass turns out to be a wonderfully warm-hearted, endearing human being who has led, and continues to lead, a life that fully embraces all of life’s possibilities–at the age of 70.
