Hello. My name is Philip (not Phillip, Philip) Glass. I was born on January 31, 1937 and grew up in Baltimore. I studied at the University of Chicago and the Julliard School (that seems populaarr). I thought that modern music today sucked. So I moved to Europe. After studying there for several years, I returned to the United States and moved to New York.
And as for minimalism, that was created by ME, thank you very much! Although I despise the term. I rather think of myself as a composer of "music with repetitive structures". Lots of my music is repetition based, reiterating many light melodies over and over in a piece.

Einstein on the Beach: 1976
