Koyaanisqatsi

The New York Phil and the Philip Glass Ensemble go on a date to the movies tonight; on the screen will be the iconic 1982 Godfrey Reggion film Koyaanisqatsi: A Life Out Of Balance. Glass's driving score—beginning with that bass intonation of the title—will mesmerize you as much as the images that take us from primordial soup to modern airports and hot dogs.
