5.0 out of 5 stars Sound & the Fury, 18 Dec 2002
By Mr. Warren M. Fisher (East Grinstead, West Sussex United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
Probably one of Glass' most accessible works and also most recognisable from its frequent use in film and television. A masterpiece from beginning to end, featuring some of Glass' most beautiful and haunting music. The November 25 pieces alone provide a muscular, propulsive power with their pounding martial percussion and throbbing strings. A potent score to accompany Paul Schrader's powerful movie, the music also stands alone as a complete work to accompany Glass' other portrait pieces.

Moving, exhilarating and unforgettable music from the greatest voice in contemporary classical music.

5.0 out of 5 stars Soundtrack of exhaltation and death, 1 April 2006
This is a soundtrack that is best heard in the context of the story of the film that it is part of (Mishima - A Life in Four Chapters and the life and writings of Yukio Mishima). The film is best described as interesting, however for me it is in many ways carried by this music - I have never heard a musical theme that is so adept at portraying an underlying meaning. What is particularly striking is the thread of exhaltation and death. It runs through the film but especially the soundtrack and, when one subsumes oneself, is more complete an emotional response to the film than the film itself. I do not mean this as a justification of Mishima's actions or worldview, just as a disturbing but undeniably exhilarating response to the story.
