Entrevista a Steve Reich




THE MUSIC SHOW - 12.01.2013
ABC Radio National / Andrew Ford

Steve Reich (New York, 1936) turned his back on Serialism back in the late 60s. He'd heard John Coltrane's free jazz and following a trip to Ghana in the early 70s he decided rhythm was more important than melody. So Minimalism was born in uptown New York. Reich is in Australia talking to loads of fans and listening to his seminal works Drumming, Clapping Music, Different Trains and Vermont Counterpoint which are being performed in Sydney and Melbourne.
Interview by Andrew Ford for The Music Show.
