Celebrating Philip Glass’s 90th birthday, two of the composer’s favorite collaborators perform an intimate program created especially for Phillips Music. Composer-pianist Anton Batagov, a renowned interpreter of Glass’s music, has toured internationally with the composer and recorded acclaimed albums including The Complete Etudes, Prophecies, The Hours, and Distant Figure. Lucinda Childs, one of America’s great choreographers and performers, has created more than 50 works with collaborators including Glass, Robert Wilson, John Adams, and Mikhail Baryshnikov. A featured performer in Glass and Wilson’s landmark Einstein on the Beach, Childs will perform selections from the iconic 1976 work for this special event at The Phillips Collection.

This performance is generously sponsored by Jane Gilbert and her family, in memory of Dr. Steven Gilbert, and by Dr. Heather McPherson.
