Steve Reich Disney Hall Concert Among "Music's Memorable Experiences" (LA Times), "Nothing Short of Transcendent" (Variety)
Steve Reich joined Bang on a Can All-Stars for the start of the group's 25th anniversary tour and a celebration of the composer's 75th birthday with an all-Reich concert at LA's Walt Disney Concert Hall on Tuesday. "A retrospective of Reich, performed by musicians who live and breathe his music, made attendance at this kind of event one of music's memorable experiences," says the Los Angeles Times. Reich is "as close to a rock star as a composer can get these days." Variety describes the performances of Music for 18 Musicians as "nothing short of transcendent."

Steve Reich Joins Bang on a Can All-Stars for All-Reich Concert at Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles
Steve Reich will take the stage at LA's Walt Disney Concert Hall tonight for a concert celebrating the composer's work. The all-Reich program—performed by Bang on a Can All-Stars, red fish blue fish, David Cossin, and the composer himself—features the West Coast premiere of 2x5, along with Piano Phase, Music for 18 Musicians, and Clapping Music, on which the composer will join in. Following tonight's concert, an LAist Classical Pick of the Week, the performers take the show to UC San Diego.
About this Album
TIME called Tehillim (named after the Hebrew word for “Psalm” or “praises”) “infectious, high-spirited” music. London’s The Mail concurred: “Harmonies and rhythms from jazz, the Middle East, Africa, and the Western tradition combine to form something truly special.”
