On Saturday, April 6th, celebrated American composer Steve Reich and pioneering artist Gerhard Richter will debut a world premiere commission, as two New York groups — Ensemble Signal and International Contemporary Ensemble — will alternate performances of Reich’s new score in counterpoint with Richter’s new work, including a new moving picture. Created by Gerhard Richter and filmmaker Corinna Belz, the moving picture will screen in an environment that is intentionally intimate for both audiences and musicians. “Gerhard and Corinna specially developed a new moving picture for this project using calculations based on Richter's book, Patterns: Divided, Mirrored, Repeated,” says Hans Ulrich Obrist, The Shed’s Senior Program Advisor.

  • A Guide to Steve Reich's Music Without Steve Reich's Rhythms, Pulses and Phasing, Contemporary Culture Would Be a Much Poorer Place
    A guide to Steve Reich's music Without Steve Reich's rhythms, pulses and phasing, contemporary culture would be a much poorer place 'He has given the contemporary musical world a licence to groove' … Steve Reich. Photograph: Martin Godwin for the Guardian It's rare that one says this about a contemporary composer, but it's become too easy to take Steve Reich for granted. Of course, that's a sign of just how influential his music has been, the way it has drawn on everything from African drumming to concept art, and how it has influenced generations of pop, jazz and classical musicians over the last half-century. In fact, if you were to subtract Steve Reich from the total sum of today's musical culture, I think you'd notice more of a difference than if you took away any other single figure. Even if you think you don't know Reich's music directly, you will almost certainly be familiar with what it does, thanks to the way his music and his example have been refracted by other composers in other fields. Here's a whistlestop tour: in the 1960s, with Terry Riley and Philip Glass, Reich gave pulse back to experimental music (listen to Clapping Music for the Reichian pulse at its purest), he discovered tape-based techniques of looping and phasing using recordings of fragments of speech (try Come Out and It's Gonna Rain ), and then molecules of musical material ( Piano Phase , Violin Phase , or the Fluxus-ish Pendulum Music). And phasing itself? Imagine you have a pattern that consists of 12 quavers.

  • Steve Reich Pakistan in 2002
    relating to the American reporter Daniel Pearl, kidnapped and murdered in Steve Reich Pakistan in 2002. Its tolling metallophones and four pianos take their departure point from yet further harmonic and timbral advances charted by Reich in the 21st century and raise them to new heights of lyrical intensity and rich darkness. _Double Sextet_ (2007), meanwhile, develops fresh perspectives to Reich's familiar interlocking patterns with pairs of identical instruments. And _2x5_ (2009) sees him returning again to his early output as the inspiration behind his first piece for an entirely rock instrumentation. Reich's output of the last three decades has found an increasingly welcome place in the Western classical concert hall, confirmed by the award of the Pulitzer Prize for Music in 2009. The ambient DJ crowd, from Brian Eno Steve Reich photo © Peter Hundert onwards, has embraced, in particular, the early, hard-edged scores, not least for their radical take on the experience of time. Yet one important message of __An introduction to the works of Steve Reich__ _by Keith Potter_ Those who Reich's entire output as a composer is that such cultural boundaries, where first encounter the music of Steve Reich through his early _It's Gonna Rain_ they still exist today, are there to be crossed. _Keith Potter, 2009_ (1965), _Piano Phase_ (1967) or _Drumming_ (1970-71) will probably connect this vividly contrapuntal music, incessantly relocating simple patterns before our ears and brains, with the term minimalism. It's not an unreasonable link to make. Yet "minimalism" scarcely does justice to this composer’s output of the last three decades and more.
