Recensie
Tijdens het Toronto Film Festival in oktober 2017 was de première van de film Jane, terwijl even daarvoor de soundtrack was uitgebracht. De film is ontstaan doordat uit de archieven van National Geographic niet eerder vertoond filmmateriaal naar boven is gehaald met opnamen van het werk van Jane Goodall. Zij deed jarenlang in Afrika baanbrekend onderzoek naar het gedrag van chimpansees. Regisseur Brett Morgan vond Philip Glass onmiddellijk bereid muziek bij het filmmateriaal te maken. Morgan vindt dat er één geheel is gevormd tussen beeld en geluid. Met de ras-Glass-vertolker Michael Riesman op de piano en het City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra met Miriam Nemcova zijn diverse verrassende elementen in deze soundtrack hoorbaar.
Glass: Jane - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
A film by Brett Morgen. New score by Oscar and Grammy winner Philip Glass. The new musical style that Glass was evolving was eventually dubbed minimalism. Glass himself never liked the term and preferred to speak of himself as a composer of music with repetitive structures. Much of his early work was based on the extended reiteration of brief, elegant melodic fragments that wove in and out of an aural tapestry.
