“Music for Large Ensemble” by Steve Reich, on the CD Triplet Quartet by the artists Ossia and Alarm Will Sound.
After last night’s news [Reich getting the Pulitzer], how could I -not- feature Steve Reich? I was lucky enough to hear an acoustic version of his winning Double Sextet in a concert with Eighth Blackbird this year, so the win is well deserved. This piece, while older, tends to remind me a great deal of the sound and energy of that performance.
