I heard this wobderfully named track on Radio 3's late junction (available still on Iplayer if anyone is interested)...and I was blown away.
It's from Einstein on The Beach by Philip Glass. To be honest I'm fairly unfamiliar with him and have only previously heard some of his soundtrack work.
Anybody a fan? Any suggested listening matter?
