Orange Mountain Music was founded in 2001 to document and catalog Philip Glass' music. Almost 10 years later, OMM releases The Philip Glass Sampler, a selection from the catalog now numbering over 50 recordings by one of the most influential composers of our time. The company was started by Glass' long-time Producer Kurt Munkacsi, and by artist/engineer/producer Don Christensen in an effort to consolidate the entire body of Glass' compositions and make them available to the public and scholars. This 21-track compilation includes music from the concert hall (piano etudes, concertos), opera house, and the cineplex (The Hours, Fog of War).
