Minimalist Jukebox: Steve Reich
From NPR Music
| Part of the Discoveries at Disney Concert Hall series
| 00:59:00
Producers: Anya Grundmann, Jeff Lunden
A music special hosted by Renee Montaigne.
The propulsive, rhythmic music of pioneering minimalist composer Steve Reich is represented by two major works: his Three Movements for Orchestra, which showcases the LA Philharmonic's percussion section; and Tehillim, his classic setting of Hebrew psalms, sung by Synergy Vocals.
Reich's minimalist style has inspired and influenced countless artists, including composers Phillip Glass and John Adams, as well as the progressive rock group King Crimson and electronic artist-producer Brian Eno.
