Those of us who were aware of early minimalism as it was happening were considerably interested in what Glass was up to in 1969: Two Pages, Music in Fifths and (especially) Music in Similar Motion. I participated in many performances of those works in the mid-1970s, but regarded with increasing dismay almost everything that he produced since 1971. I still regard Music in Similar Motion as an excellent piece - but I suspect that few members of this board are as attracted to early minimalism as I am (?).

I don't any longer regard Glass as a "minimalist" composer, by the way, and nobody else should either.
