Steve Reich: ECM Recordings

Composer Steve Reich turned 90 in October this year, and ECM has re-released some of his finest recordings in honour of that milestone.

The cross-over between jazz and classical has long offered a fascinating seam of music that begins somewhere around a century ago with compositions from George Gershwin blurring the lines between serious and popular music.

With Steve Reich, that legacy continued towards the end of the 20th century.

Now ECM has re-released some of the most outstanding recordings in a beautiful box set, including the Music for 18 Musicians, which is one of his most famous works.

In addition, there is Octet, Music for a Large Ensemble, Violin Phase and Tehilim. 

The box set of Steve Reich’s recordings is available on ECM Records
