Philip Glass
Koyaanisqatsi (CD)
Koyaanisqatsi is the soundtrack album to Godfrey Reggio’s 1982 experimental film. Composed by Philip Glass, the music accompanies a montage of stark, contemplative imagery without narration, aligning minimalist motifs with evolving cinematic sequences. The CD presents a suite of instrumental pieces that mirror the film’s themes of balance, urbanization, and nature, making it a standalone minimalist work as well as a companion to the visuals.
