UncutJul 6, 2022The effect is kaleidoscopic, as the music constantly moves and morphs to reveal new shapes, colours and meanings. [Jul 2022, p.31]

Jul 6, 2022If the music never quite achieves the power and majesty of Reich’s Music for 18 Musicians, it has something of that great work’s certainty and inevitability, which is more than enough.

The WireJul 6, 2022Not a radical departure, then, but a very satisfying development of Reich’s totally distinctive stylistic approach. [Jun 2022, p.52]

Jul 6, 2022The live performance here by the Ensemble Intercontemporain (a group that once upon a time would have had little to do with Reich) is sharp, and the Salle Boulez at the Philharmonie de Paris serves the work well acoustically.
