The rise and fall of repetitive rhythms is one of the hallmarks of American composer Philip Glass's music. The English
National Opera's production of his Egyptian opera Akhnaten was a huge success. For some, though, the music is a totally numbing experience. In the week he returns to London for a concert of his music, the composer talks to
Michael Berkeley about the dramatic shape which underpins his work and about some of his latest projects.
