BOOK OF LONGING

"Book of Longing" has exceptional range, It is clear yet steamy, cosmic yet private, both playful and profound. And it is as soulful a credo as he has ever put on paper...

- The New York Times

Philip Glass. Leonard Cohen. Eight instruments. Four voices. Music. Words. Images. Book of Longing is, in the words of composer Philip Glass, the culmination of an artistic dream, a dream which we can now see for the first time in Spain, combining the collection of poems Leonard Cohen published in 2006 - erotic, thoughtful and playful - with the indefinable music of Glass, sat at his keyboard. A personal, inspiring work, full of intensity. The union of two stars which takes us, as Cohen says in his poetry, "from chaos to art".
