Minimalism in Motion: Glass, Nyman and Beyond

American composer Philip Glass will be celebrated with a Lifetime Achievement Award at the film music concert Minimalism in Motion: Glass, Nyman and Beyond which will close Film Fest Gent’s Film Music Days 2025 and the 25th World Soundtrack Awards.

While initially renowned for his work for opera and his symphonies, Philip Glass has made an equally impressive contribution to film music, with a rich oeuvre of film scores that include Koyaanisqatsi, Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters, The Truman Show, Kundun, The Hours and Notes on a Scandal.

During this concert, a selection of Philip Glass’s work will be performed by the Brussels Philharmonic conducted by maestro Dirk Brossé, who personally presented the award to Philip Glass in New York.
