Glass, Philip

Naqoyqatsi - Life As War O.s.t. (2lp)

'Naqoyqatsi' is the third and final film in the Qatsi trilogy, meaning "life as war". Just like its predecessors 'Koyaanisqatsi' and 'Powaqqatsi', the music was composed by Philip Glass. Performed by members of the Philip Glass Ensemble, and featuring the amazing Yo-Yo Ma on cello, this completes the lengthy score which was begun for this film series with 'Koyaanisqatsi' in 1982. The music is more in the traditional orchestral tradition than much of Glass's work as a familiar doorway to images so disconnected from the familiar world. One instrument, the cello, plays through much of the piece. Some unconventional instruments are used in addition to traditional ones, including a didgeridoo and an electronically created jaw harp. Comes on a 2LP set on 180 gram vinyl, presented in a gatefold sleeve and contains an 8-page booklet.
