I've always thought that Steve Reich's practice could survive even without the political-social message, which has always seemed to me to be superfluous and sycophantic (with the Pulitzer as a seal). Whether it's the ghettos of Harlem, the trains of deported Jews, or the attack on the Twin Towers, Reich has demonstrated an "Italian" vision (I'm thinking of Nono, above all) of music as a socio-political educational department. His works on phasing, counterpoint, and the brilliant idea of "Pendulum music" interest me more. The fact is that Donald Trump declares himself a fan, and Reich's perspective seems Siberianly distant from this rosy guy's political manifesto. Fact Magazine writes: "Trump, change ghostwriter." Wise words. Steve Reich - Come Out (Original Ver.)
