   What is Steve Reich's Music?

   • 31st January 1937 in Baltimore, Maryland, USA. Modern classical music. His music is often called minimalist, but he doesn’t like that title. Instead he says he is a composer of ‘music with repetitive structures’. His music is made up of short bits of music (phrases) that repeat over and over again. (See also Steve Reich .)

   Where did the title 'the Desert Music' come from?

   • The title is taken from Dr. Williams’ book of collected poems, The Desert Music. From this collection I chose parts of The Orchestra and Theocritus: Idyl I – A version from the Greek. From another collection I chose a small part of Asphodel, That Greeny Flower. There are no complete poems used and the arrangement of parts is my own.
