Nonesuch releases Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Steve Reich’s album, ‘Radio Rewrite’. Co-commissioned for and recorded by Alarm Will Sound, the title piece references two songs by the English band Radiohead. Alan Pierson conducts this premiere recording of Radio Rewrite, which was composed in 2012. The album also includes recordings of Electric Counterpoint (1987) and Piano Counterpoint, which is a 2011 transcription by Vincent Corver of Reich’s 1973 Six Pianos; the works are performed, respectively, by Radiohead’s guitarist, Jonny Greenwood, and pianist Vicky Chow.

Reich and his ensemble will join Philip Glass and his Ensemble for performances at the Brooklyn Academy of Music this month as part of the Nonesuch Records at BAM 50th anniversary celebration; Alarm Will Sound will also perform as part of the BAM series, including Radio Rewrite.
