Philip Glass - Pruit Igoe and Prophecies
on: June 07, 2015, 03:28:34 PM
Hey guys. Having recently begun learning piano I became interested in Philip Glass. Therefore I was wondering whether or not sheet music exist of his works: Pruit Igoe and Prophecies. They can be heard in the Interstellar movie:


Thanks in advance!

They're both pieces from Koyaanisqatsi-

I don't think there is sheet music. Here is a Youtube tutorial, but I haven't checked it out myself.

There is actually a body of work by Glass written specifically for the piano. You might consider giving that a go.
