In his long and staggeringly creative career as a composer, he’s transformed how we listen to music. He’s written more than 30 operas, 14 symphonies, 13 concertos, and 35 film scores. But his most personal work is a series of 20 piano etudes, originally created to “address the deficiencies in my own playing,” in Glass’s words. The etudes have taken on a life of their own as a modern masterpiece. Majestic and intimate at the same time, these compositions for solo piano have been performed and recorded by dozens of artists and streamed over 100 million times.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePhilip Glass Piano Etudes\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis in every way a one-of-a-kind tribute to this singular work.
