Nicolas Horvath - Philip Glass: Glassworlds (Complete Piano Music), Volume 1-6 (2015-2019) 6 CDs Music

Posted by Designol at Nov. 21, 2023

Piano is Philip Glass’ primary instrument (he also studied violin and flute); he composes at the keyboard. With its seemingly contradictory elements of lyricism and percussiveness, it is in some ways the ideal medium for Glass’ musical language. With its deep roots in tradition (spanning the Classical, Romantic and Modern eras), the instrument embodies the composer’s desire to merge new ideas with classic forms. It is perhaps via piano (and, by extension, keyboard) that performers and listeners can make the most direct and personal contact with Glass’ musical genius. Nicolas Horvath is an unusual artist with an unconventional résumé. He began his music studies at the Académie de Musique Prince Rainier III de Monaco, and at the age 16, he caught the attention of the American conductor Lawrence Foster who helped him to secure a three-year scholarship from the Princess Grace Foundation in order to further his studies. His mentors include a number of distinguished international pianists. Known for his boundary-less musical explorations, Horvath is an enthusiastic promoter of contemporary music. He has commissioned numerous works and collaborated with leading contemporary composers from around the world including Philip Glass.

Genre: Video Training

In this course, you will learn to create apps that run directly on Google Glass by creating a full-featured Scavenger Hunt game using the Glass Development Kit. The course takes you through the complete process of building a Scavenger Hunt game that runs entirely on Google Glass. In the process of creating this game, you will learn how to develop apps for Google Glass that interact with the Glass Timeline and incorporate the distinct behaviors of a wearable computer like Google Glass, including using voice commands to launch your app, capturing photos, and incorporating touch-based-gestures for navigation. In this game, the player uses the built-in camera to capture photos corresponding to a randomly generated list of Scavenger Hunt categories. As each photo is captured, the player uses touch-based-gesture navigation to associate the photo with the appropriate category. The game uses a Google Glass LiveCard to display the player's ongoing game status on the Glass Timeline with game play continuing until the player has captured a photo for every category.

As one of postmodern music's most celebrated and high-profile composers, Philip Glass' myriad orchestral works, operas, film scores, and dance pieces proved essential to the development of ambient and new age sounds, and his fusions of Western and world musics were among the earliest and most successful global experiments of their kind. Tirelessly exploring and pushing boundaries since the early '60s, Glass produced multiple breakthrough works that helped define entire musical movements, with standouts including 1976's durational opera Einstein on the Beach, 1982's collection of more accessible neo-classical pieces Glassworks, and stellar film scores perfecting the mood for The Thin Blue Line, Kundun, The Hours, and many, many more.
