Steve Reich

Composer Steve Reich performs a rare evening of his seminal works. A pioneering figure in minimalist music, Reich's compositions are known for their hypnotic, phase-shifting patterns and intricate rhythmic structures. This concert offers an opportunity to hear a master present his own material, showcasing the influential sound that has shaped contemporary classical and electronic music for decades. This engagement takes place Saturday, October 24, 2026, at Berkeley's Zellerbach Hall. The large, acoustically rich theater is well-suited for the expansive nature of Reich's pieces. It's a key event for anyone interested in modern classical composition or the history of minimalist art forms.
