If you have multiple products in your order, you can choose the ‘Direct Ship’ option to receive products as they become available in multiple shipments. Otherwise, they will be grouped in a single shipment (or your next ROTM shipment for members) after all products are received at our warehouse.

Since pre-order albums are not available to ship until the manufacturing completes, the actual ship date can shift. If there is a delay, we will always contact you.

Description

String Quartets from one of the most daring classical composers by the most daring classical ensemble of the 20th century. Kronos Quartet Performs Philip Glass includes landmark pieces including No. 2, aka 'Company' and No. 3, from the 1985 film score for Mishima. Glass is quoted, "I was thinking that I had really gone beyond the need to write a serious string quartet and that I could write a quartet that is about musicality, which in a certain way is the most serious subject."
Limited to 1500 copies, the VMP exclusive version of Kronos Quartet Performs Philip Glass is pressed on Opaque Blue vinyl at Record Industry. The 2LPs will arrive in a widespine, direct-to-board and numbered jacket. It was mastered by Craig Silvey at Soundbyte, New York, New York.
