“Music For Mallet Instruments, Voices And Organ”

“Reich may be the last of the great minimalists to stay with the format. Where Philip Glass has gone more operatic and Terry Riley drifted into Eastern smoothness, Reich has, if anything, gone full circle back to his minimalist roots. This album will be hard to take for some--it goes somewhere but does so slowly and incrementally, especially this first track. But those who thrived on Riley's "In C" and Reich's own earlier works will find it well worth their time.”
