Gray-black quarto; xii, 416 pages, 16 unnumbered pages of plates : illustrations ; 25 cm, wrapped in mylar Signed by Glass on title page. "A world-renowned composer of symphonies, operas, and film scores, Glass has, almost single-handedly, crafted the dominant sound of late-twentieth-century classical music. Here his behind-the-scenes recollections allow readers to experience those moments of creative fusion when life so magically merged with art. From his childhood in post-World War II Baltimore to his student days in Chicago, at Juilliard, and his first journey to Paris, where he studied under the formidable Nadia Boulanger, Glass movingly recalls his early mentors, while reconstructing the places that helped shape his artistic consciousness."–Publisher. || Composers & Musicians -- United States -- Biography& Autobiography.
