I am wide awake: the mind is listening. There’s a reason why Steve Reich is a living legend – he’s the composer who broke music down to its raw elements and then rebuilt it, transforming the way we listen. Scottish percussion superstar Colin Currie leads a dancing, shimmering salute to a true icon, including the mind-expanding 1983 epic The Desert Music. Experience minimalism taken to the maximum: the sounds that made our century, in all their power, rhythm and beauty.
The running time of this concert is approximately 2 hours, including a 20-minute interval.
