Violinist Tim Fain has long been an advocate of Glass's music, both as a soloist in the composer's concertos and in chamber music performances with the Philip Glass Ensemble. Glass composed his Partita for Solo Violin specifically for Fain, and it is heard here in its world-première recording. This disc also features solo violin music from Einstein on the Beach, the interludes from the Violin Concerto No.2, and the solo violin music from Book of Longing, the piece that launched Fain's collaboration with Glass.
