Richard Kostelanetz has written and edited numerous volumes on music and the arts, including Nicolas Slonimsky: The First Hundred Years (1994), John Cage (ex)plain(ed) (1996) and the Frank Zappa Companion (1997).
"The best available introduction to Glass's music. . . . This artfully edited assemblage of interviews, articles, reviews, and critical essays reflects the belief of electroacoustic composer Kostelanetz that avant-garde minimalist Philip Glass is a genuinely popular composer, heir to Aaron Copland, who has fashioned his own aesthetic. New York-based Glass . . . comes across here as highly articulate and unpretentious."--"Publishers Weekly
