Steve Reich: Different Trains

Pulsing with rhythmic energy and unfolding with hypnotic clarity, Steve Reich’s music has reshaped modern classical, electronic and popular music around the world.

To celebrate the 90th birthday of this pioneering composer, we shine a spotlight on his groundbreaking work with a performance of Different Trains with a cutting-edge audio installation by spatial audio designers Loss﹥﹤Gain with Colin Currie Group, offering an exploded 360° insider’s view of some of Reich’s most admired compositions, revealing the inner structures of each piece in fresh and startling detail.
