(TV) Glass on PBS

Yeah, I  was impressed with that American Masters documentary, esp. the staging/art production
of the operas and most of his musical pieces.

Glass said he doesn't create new music but instead he somehow discovers/hears pieces that "...
have always existed since the beginning of time.."; I wonder if there are any other musicians
have a similiar theory on composing/creating?

Felt sorry for his wife.

I hope I look as young as he does when I'm in my 70s.
