Abstract

Philip Glass's friends had a reasonable excuse for jumping the gun and throwing him a 75th-birthday party two days early at Le Poisson Rouge on Sunday evening. On the actual day, Tuesday, Mr. Glass will be at Carnegie Hall to hear the American premiere of his Ninth Symphony. And he may not have a night off for some time: Already penciled into his calendar for this season is a run of concerts with his ensemble at the Park Avenue Armory in late February; productions of 14 of his operas around the world; further performances of his new symphony; and the premiere of his Symphony No. 10.
