Once Within a Time (Original Soundtrack)

Orange Mountain Music is proud to announce the release of the original motion picture soundtrack to the film Once Within A Time, directed by Godfrey Reggio (Koyaanisqatsi, Powaqqatsi, Visitors) and co-directed by Jon Kane, with new music by Philip Glass and Sussan Deyhim. Conscripting his collaborator of over four decades, Philip Glass, Godfrey Reggio is back with his latest film of poetic non-narrative reflections on the world we live in and technology's imprint on all of us. Made over a number of years, Once Within A Time, evolved and soon came to include a large amount of music by composer/vocalist Sussan Deyhim - as well as additional music by Cameron Glass, Mau Quiros, and Tanner Poff. Having scored all of Reggio's past major efforts including the Qatsi Trilogy, Visitors, Anima Mundi, and Evidence, Glass composed new music for this new universe as only Reggio could describe it, using music and images - which range from calliope music to traditional dies irae (The Day of Wrath). Performers include The Philip Glass Ensemble directed by Michael Riesman, The Brooklyn Youth Chorus directed by Dianne Berkun, Menaker, Nathann Koci, Mark Atkins of Sirit Gallery, The Harlem School of the Arts, Tara Starling Khozein.
