Steve Reich - The ECM Recordings[3 CD]
- Minimalist-music-pioneer Steve Reich found his first home as a recording artist with ECM
Steve Reich has been described by The Guardian as one of a handful of living composers who can legitimately claim to have altered the direction of musical history and as the greatest musical thinker of our time - by The New Yorker.

Steve Reich celebrates his 80th birthday on October 3, and The ECM Recordings brings together the landmark albums Music for 18 Musicians, Music for a Large Ensemble/Violin Phase/Octet and Tehillim in a limited edition set to mark the occasion.

Originally released in 1978, 1980 and 1982, each of these recordings had a decisive influence which continues to reverberate across musical idioms.

This 3-CD box set includes a 44-page booklet with original liner notes by Steve Reich, a new essay by Paul Griffiths, and session photography by Deborah Feingold and Barbara Klemm.
