Glass soundtrack

I had not been interested in watching any of the movies being shown on tv until I caught a glimpse of Edward Norton starring in what looked like a period piece being shown on Star Movies early this evening. It turned out to be the movie entitled The Illusionist which I vaguely remembered was being frequently compared with another movie about a magician, The Prestige, that was released in the same year (2005?). I was hooked at once by the storyline but was even more mesmerized by the haunting musical score. I naturally waited until the credits came on to find out who the composer was. And no wonder, it was Philip Glass! That's definitely another movie soundtrack going onto my wish list.
