Explanation:

1. Philip Glass is a musical composer and Pianist, regarded by many as one of the most influential composers of the XX century, composes "music with repetitive structures", and is part of the Minimalist music movement. In minimalist music, the minimal musical material are used and repeated many times with small changes introduced gradually.

2. A motet is not a vocal style, but a type of musical composition. A cantata is also a musical composition and consists mainly of a declamatory narrative in recitative, along with an aria repeated at intervals. And the cantata was almost always performed by choruses .

3. A symphonic poem is a musical piece performed by an orchestra composed to evoke images, scenes, ideas or moods from a poem, short story, novel, painting or other form of art. A main characteristic is that they didnñt focus on traditional patterns of musical form, like the sonata form, an prefered a more flexible method to evoke these aspects.

4. It is thought that custom of standing during the chorus of Messiah's 'Hallelujah' came from King George II who stood up during the chorus at the London premier, and as it was tradition to stand up when the king stood, the audience also stood up. Although this version is not confirmed, it remains a tradition to stand up during the chorus.
