Music and Conversation with Philip Glass


There's an urban legend about composer Philip Glass. The one about him driving a New York City cab just when his first opera was being staged at the Met. A passenger looked at his cabbie's license, and declared that he had the same name as a famous opera composer.Turns out, it's true.
Glass says he didn't have the heart to tell her that famous composer was driving her home.
