Description: | One of Steve Reichā??s most famous and enduring works, Music for 18
Musicians first caught the attention of percussionist Colin Currie in the
1980s. Over the years that followed, Currie dutifully built his library of
Reich scores and recordings, but it was this work in particular that truly
captured his imagination, holding him in its epic grasp ever since.
Of Reichā??s comprehensive catalogue, it is this warm and resonant
composition that signifies a major breakthrough in the sphere of minimalist
music. ā??The perfect musical beehiveā? is how Currie describes performing
the pieceā??and itā??s easy to see why, with each musician purposefully
teasing the material along, playing their own brilliantly contained part, yet
contributing to something greater that hums with life.
Following the success of his previous albums, Steve Reich: Drumming
(2018) and Colin Currie & Steve Reich Live at Fondation Louis Vuitton
(2019), Colin Currie is joined on this album by his closest musical
colleagues and companions, the Colin Currie Group and Synergy Vocals,
who recorded the work at Londonā??s Abbey Road Studios in 2022. - .. MUSIC FOR 18 MUSICIANS© 2023 Colin Currie. ? 2023 Colin Currie.
Recorded 16 November 2022 at Abbey Road Studios, London, at 24bit 96kHz PCM. |
