Philip Glass is often mentioned in the same breath as Steve Reich and Terry Riley. Glass' minimalism, however, can be said to represent a completely different direction than that taken by Reich or Riley, but in history books we often find them on the same page. Today, Glass is probably best known for his film music, where several of his soundtracks have been nominated for Oscars, such as the cello music for The Hours.
String Quartet No. 3 was written for Paul Schrader's acclaimed film Mishisma – a Life in Four Chapters in 1985. The controversial Japanese author Yukio Mishima developed his own form of nationalism and cultural conservatism.
