Curiously, the author expounds on why he does not like Glass's work (fair enough) and how Glass is not a great composer (certainly up for debate); he spends no time (and appears to have no insights) explaining why, exactly, so many people have been duped into enjoying it. He proposes a few theories, but seems rather dismissive in the face some pretty convincing evidence re: Glass's greatness. I actually looked for a "next page" button.

The author claims that Glass' music has been successful for people to get high to and as background for films and stage performances, but not adopted for the concert hall, and the explanations are in line with this.
