Product Description & Reviews
1 x CD AlbumGermany 1990The Four Sections (26:00)1 - I. Strings (11:25)2 - II. Percussion (2:29)3 - III. Winds And Brass (5:55)4 - IV. Full Orchestra (6:11)- 5 - Music For Mallet Instruments, Voices And Organ (16:47) Steve Reich's music is based around the phase shifting of percussion instruments. Even when he uses a larger ensemble--or a whole orchestra--you can still make out the percussion underneath. It's always there. In The Four Sections he takes a simple theme on the strings, then punctuates the flow with precise, percussive effects. It is very engaging music, some of the best this composer has written. Music for Mallet Instruments, Voices and Organ is a tour de force. Once again the percussion rules. Here the organ and voices provide the undercarriage for all sorts of wondrous mallet instruments to flow over the top. --Paul Cook
