Audio cd. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Disc like new. Jewel box like new. Full liner notes. 6 tracks. Offering / composed by Ravi Shankar (9: 40) ; Sadhanipa (8: 31) ; Channels and winds (7: 56) ; Ragas in minor scale (7: 32) / composed by Philip Glass; Meeting along the edge (8: 05) ; Prashanti (13: 37) / composed by Ravi Shankar. Original music composed by Ravi Shankar and Philip Glass. 'A collaboration between an avant-garde modern classical composer and a traditional Indian/Hindi composer/performer seems as unlikely as ice hockey on the River Styx. However, Passages is a collaboration between Philip Glass and Ravi Shankar and it works quite well. Shankar's smooth style fits nicely with Glass' dissonant orchestrations. There is a great deal of technical data involved here. Both of these artists have long taken intellectual approaches to music. Thus, the liner notes are a bit heavy-handed. The music is brilliant. The symphony dominates the soundscapes, but Shankar's atmospheres are integral to the success of this project.'.
