Philip Glass, one of the most influential composers of the late 20th century, will launch an eclectic annual arts festival in August, with music, dance, theater, poetry and film offerings at Hidden Valley, an arts training center near Carmel. 

But it gets better: his very-first “Days and Nights Festival,” which runs Aug. 19 to Sept. 4, will also include a poetry evening and a concert at the Henry Miller Library in Big Sur!

We can’t say when exactly, yet.  But man.

Philip, you may recall, is a friend to us at the Library.  He played our 2008 benefit concert, which is memorialized on a lovely poster, available at our online store, for a mere $20.

Mr. Glass = BFF!
