The homepage includes a schedule of upcoming international performances of the “Philip Glass at 80” season. It also displays a calendar of events, a newly released album, and the most recent articles in “Glass Notes”. Each of the following pages on the website has a column on the right with the events calendar, information about the latest album, and newsletter sign up option. The News tab is a collection of the most recent articles from other sources related to Glass and his works. “Glass Notes”, however, is a page of original articles. The next tab provides a biography of Glass. Following is a calendar tab with all performances and related events and outside links for more details. The Music tab breaks down into four sections: recordings, compositions, films, and books. The discography can be organized alphabetically or chronologically. There is also the option to view recordings by their cover image instead of in a list. Each album page provides information such as the catalog number, track names and durations, notes, credits, links to buy the album, and related pages on the Philip Glass website. The works list is organized alphabetically. Each composition page provides information such as the title, date, duration, instrumentation/voicing, commission, premiere, publisher, related works recordings on the website, and other notes. The list of his film music is also organized alphabetically. Individual pages provide the film title, date, cast, synopsis or notes, credits, and related works recordings. The list of books is in alphabetical order; each provides the title, date, author, catalog number, language, table of contents, credits, and other notes or related items. This website also has a photo gallery of Glass, a contact page for publishing companies and various managers, and a search option to find certain compositions or articles.
