Description:
Steve Reich has been called "the greatest composer of his time" and "the greatest musical thinker. He is known for his compositional approach, which incorporates American traditional music (especially jazz structures, harmonies, and rhythms) with a Western classical background. This album is the world premiere recording of two works by Reich, one in 2013 and the other in 2015. Pulse," written for winds, strings, piano, and electric bass, is from 2015. Compared to Reich's earlier works, it is a progressive piece with dizzying tonal changes. The constant rhythm kept by the electric bass and piano and the smooth wind and string melody lines allowed for the creation of a single fusion body. The constant rhythm could be altered by the changes in the piano strike, which worked like different accents. It is a peaceful and contemplative piece. Although "quartet" generally refers to a "string quartet," this piece is not performed by a "string quartet" but by four players: two pianos and two percussionists, an instrument that has always played a central role in my works. These pieces are among the more complex ones I have ever composed, changing tonality or stopping abruptly, interrupting the development of new elements. The pieces are not overly difficult, but they require a high level of ensemble skill." In the "slow" part, there are some harmonies that are not present in the previous pieces.The music is not a 'classical' music," Reich said. This is a work that is distinct from what is called 'classical music' in the so-called history of Western music. Rather than exploring grandeur and beauty, this is a composer who weaves the language of his time using a combination of rhythms that live in the modern age. This is Steve Reich, and his works are full of charm. Warner Music Japan
