This week on “The Soundtrack,” host Haley Taylor explores the hypnotic, shape-shifting world of composer Philip Glass—one of the most influential and misunderstood voices in modern music. From the pulsating structure of “Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters” to the haunting presence of “The Truman Show,” “The Hours,” and “Notes on a Scandal,” Glass’s music doesn’t just accompany a film—it transforms it. With stories about his signature repetition, his unlikely on-screen cameo, and how his work resonates across genres and decades, this episode invites listeners to rethink what film scores can be. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to Glass’s work, prepare to hear time—and music—differently.
Haley Taylor hosts “The Soundtrack,” every Saturday and Sunday at 6 p.m. where she explores the scores of the silver screen. Tune in for an hour of unforgettable film music with a look at the composers and the stories that made these melodies sing. Stay connected by following #TheSoundtrack on Instagram.
