Philip Glass said: in 1969, nobody knew me so I could make any jokes I liked. Here's the joke pushed to eight pipers: four bagpipes, four bombards

These 'first classics' are the premise for Einstein on the Beach. Philip Glass composed them after a trip to North Africa and India. Perhaps that's why these pieces are modal and perfectly suited to bagpipes' Surprisingly, they seem to have been written for these instruments.
