This is pretty good. Funny how it took so damn long for him and Glass, et al, to figure out musical approaches to their ideas. In fact, though in shorter forms, they'd been pre-empted by the success of film composers using such concepts.
@mistrymister i would also love to get that mp3! i actually think this group is much more lyrical than eighth blackbird's recording--which is almost unfathomably good, because that recording is wonderful.
like in many compositions before, steve reich lets the ensemble play "against" a prerecorded tape, that was made prior to the concert. hence the name DOUBLE Sextett.
@GaryALucas nobody needs a conductor ;)
