The kernel of this album came in 2020 with the digital release of the last track on this album, Glass’s 1997 Epilogue from Bent, which was recorded during the Black Lives Matter protests across the United States. The recording was cathartic for Spruill and eventually led to a deep-dive into Glass’s catalogue of works for the instrument. These new recordings feature the iconic music for the films Candyman and Naqoyqatsi, as well as music from Glass’s stage works ( A Madrigal Opera, “Afternoon Waltz” from The Screens) as well as purely instrumental music such as Arabesque in Memoriam.
Spruill is quickly becoming one of the prominent voices of his generation. Spruill is a champion of the music of composers such as Philip Glass and Michael Nyman. His debut recording of Nyman’s Yamamoto Perpetuo was much lauded. A Common Time marks his second full album totally dedicated to the music of Philip Glass and released on Glass’s own label Orange Mountain Music.
