Naqoyqatsi (Audio CD)

Customer Review

Those who have been impressed by the sounds of the two previous Qatsi soundtracks, must make some compromises in Naqoyqatsi unfortunately. Because unfortunately the latest Glass-plate offers not consistently those almost hypnotic sounds that he once composed for the trilogy. But this does not diminish the listening experience. Because Philip Glass it has made "melodic" this time a little more. That may be a step towards more conventional music, how else is she in soundtracks. But the distinctiveness of Glass remains.
Especially nice are the successful recurring themes that strongly recall by the cello on "Mishima" and be outstanding from Yo-Yo Ma in scene.
For this purpose it is necessary to Philip Glass yes get him nor desire to experiment has even after such a long time. Thus one finds but actually in "Point Blank" at the end of a splendid didgeridoo solo.
With Naqoyqatsi Philip Glass is the Quatsi trilogy a fee end end. Even someone who has been so far rather put off by the minimal themes Glass's, should access here. It is worth it!
