The re-recording of this piece is an interpretation of Reich’s composition but still far more than just that – it is a modern approach to his idea behind it. The basic idea came up at the beginning of the 70s at „The Baldwin Piano & Organ Company“ in New York. During a rehearsal phase Steve Reich spent in this very piano store, the idea emerged of writing a composition for all the grand pianos available to him at the company. By the time of the finished piece, the actual number of pianos had settled down to six, whereof „Six Pianos” developed in 1973. On the occasion of his 80th birthday, the six pianists declare their love to Steve Reich and his composition with this release. Shaped by electronic club music as well as their classical education, they form „Six Pianos” in dignified modernity and top it off with today’s sound esthetics and technical recording possibilities. What you will be hearing is not the recording from the „Kölner Philharmonie” (Cologne Philharmonics) but the ensemble play of six different grand pianos in six different locations, throughout Germany. Each pianist performed his part on his piano using his typical studio equipment and passed the recording over to the next one. Thus the six characteristic and individual timbres of the performers overlay to create the overall picture – „Six Pianos” the way it should be looked at in 2016. „Pianists are soloists and lone warriors by nature”, as Gregor Schwellenbach once said. But the initiator not only won over solo artists to the greatest possible extent such as Hauschka or John Kameel Farah but also musicians from „Brandt Brauer Frick“ and „Grandbrothers“ as well as their ensemble partners: Jan Brauer mixed „Six Pianos” in the studio while Lukas Vogel provided delays for the b-side. „Keyboard Study #1“ by Terry Riley is a worthy b-side opposed to Reich’s composition. The piece is kind of a building set of ever lengthening, repetitive patterns played against each other with the right and left hand displaced. The composition proposes various possible combinations for the performer to choose from and repeat at will. And what the performers have chosen proves Gregor Schwellenbach’s assumption: „Especially Terry Riley’s and Steve Reich’s music are open doors for pianists socialized by pop music and their audience.” Artist Steve Reich And Terry Riley Genre Electronica Label Film Buying Options 180g 1LP Includes Download Code Format 180g , 1LP , Includes Download Code Condition New Country United Kingdom Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Electronica View Product Quick View Burial Antidawn EP Electronica | Hyperdub | 12", EP/Mini Album Released 28th January 2022 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Burial Antidawn EP £16.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Hyperdub SKU: HDBLP050 Formats: 12", EP/Mini Album Released Date: 28th January 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Olive Extra Virgin Electronica | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 6th June 2016 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Olive Extra Virgin £24.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1606 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 6th June 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jason Sharp A Boat Upon Its Blood Electronica | Constellation | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 30th September 2016 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jason Sharp A Boat Upon Its Blood £21.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Constellation SKU: CST119LP Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 30th September 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Lapalux Nostalchic Electronica | Brainfeeder | 2LP, Coloured Vinyl, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released 26th January 2024 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lapalux Nostalchic £26.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Brainfeeder SKU: BF037R Formats: 2LP, Coloured Vinyl, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released Date: 26th January 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nearly New View Product Quick View Quadrophonia Cozmic Jam Electronica | ARS Productions | 1LP Released 30th July 2023 £10.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Quadrophonia Cozmic Jam £10.00 Genre: Electronica Label: ARS Productions SKU: nn268316 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 30th July 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Deadly Avenger Everyday Is Kill Electronica | Death Waltz Originals | 180g, 1LP Released 1st December 2017 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Deadly Avenger Everyday Is Kill £26.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Death Waltz Originals SKU: DWO23 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 1st December 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Gospel House Choir RE//CHOIRED Electronica | Island | 2LP Released 23rd October 2020 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Gospel House Choir RE//CHOIRED £18.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Island SKU: 3503339 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 23rd October 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View CUTS A Gradual Decline Electronica | Village Green | 2LP Released 30th November 2018 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders CUTS A Gradual Decline £22.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Village Green SKU: VGLP048 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 30th November 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Rone Views Of A Room Electronica | InFine | 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released 8th January 2021 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Rone Views Of A Room £16.00 Genre: Electronica Label: InFine SKU: IF2079 Formats: 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released Date: 8th January 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Fever Ray Plunge Remix Electronica | Rabid Records | 2LP Released 22nd November 2019 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Fever Ray Plunge Remix £23.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Rabid Records SKU: RABID083T Formats: 2LP Released Date: 22nd November 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Electronica Start again
