Yes, while no expert on the discography of Philip Glass, this album sure seems like the essential collection. It samples heavily from Songs from Liquid Days, an album I once owned on cassette (an inferior medium).

Album · 1992 · 31 Songs. Michael Riesman, The Philip Glass Ensemble, Paul Zukofsky & Paul Zukovsky. 4. Primacy of Number. Yo-Yo Ma, The Philip Glass Ensemble & Michael Riesman.

Lightning: Janice Pendarvis, vocals & The Philip Glass Ensemble (Philip Glass, Suzanne Vega). Changing Opinion: Bernard Fowler, vocals, Michael Riesman, piano, Paul Dunkel, flute (Philip Glass, Paul Simon). Façades: The Philip Glass Ensemble. A Gentleman’s Honor: The Philip Glass Ensemble. The Kuru Field of Justice (Extract): Douglas Perry, tenor, New York City Opera Orchestra & Chorus. Protest: Douglas Perry, tenor, New York City Opera Orchestra & Chorus. Evening Song: Douglas Perry, tenor, New York City Opera Orchestra & Chorus  . The new album features all new music including the world premiere recordings of new works by Philip Glass, Gavin Bryars, David Skidmore, Peter Martin, and Robert Dillon.

The Essential Philip Glass, an album of 13 tracks taken from previous Sony releases, presents something of a dilemma: it gives a good idea of what some of Glass' music sounds like, but at the same time it badly misrepresents what much of Glass' music is actually about.

The following is a list of compositions by Philip Glass. How Now for ensemble (also for piano, 1968). Music in Fifths (1969). Music in Similar Motion (1969). Music with Changing Parts (1970, recorded 1973). Music in Twelve Parts (1971–1974). Another Look at Harmony, Parts I and II (1975). Dance (Dance 1, 3 and 5, 1979, with Lucinda Childs and Sol LeWitt). A Descent Into the Maelstrom (based on the short story by Edgar Allan Poe, 1986).

Philip Glass 13-01-2012. Total duration:3 h 10 min. 01. Songs from Liquid Days: No. 2, Lightning. Composers: Philip Glass.
