Concert of Classic Musical Minimalism

Please join the students of Professor Neil Lerner’s MUS 237/337 course (Minimalism/Postminimalism) in a rare realization of three classic works of musical minimalism in Tyler-Tallman Hall during the Verna Miller Case Symposium. Two of Steve Reich’s early works will create complex rhythmic patterns resulting from swinging microphones (Pendulum Music) and handclapping (Clapping Music). Then hear Terry Riley’s iconic In C, wherein melodic patterns repeat and overlap, emerging and evolving into intricate textures.

Students:
Caroline Cox, Feiyang Liu, Fully Porter, Abby Reardon, and Adit Sahasrabudhe

Program:
Reich, Pendulum Music
Reich, Clapping Music
Riley, In C
