Reich Drumming Six Pianos Music For Mallet Instrument

Reich Steve

‘Drumming’ is a classic of hope and achievement. Coming after a few years – the late sixties – when so many old barriers had fallen, it rejoices in a world where modern and ancient, western and non-western are no longer separate categories

“My visit to Africa in 1970 confirmed my intuition that acoustic instruments and voices could be used to produce music that was genuinely richer in sound than that produced by electronic instruments, as well as confirming my natural inclination towards percussion.” STEVE REICH

Review

There is something primal and exciting about Steve Reich’s music. Drumming is one of his most famous works and in this re-release as part of a new series with Deutsche Grammophon featuring music from the 20th Century, it’s put with the works Six Pianos and Music fro Mallet Instruments Voices and Organ. If you have somehow missed out on hearing these works – I cannot say how much you’re missing out! These are the original recordings and the best way to be introduced to these works.
