REICH Three Movements for Orchestra

Composer-conductor John Adams curates and conducts a program of living American composers โ€” from minimalist icons Steve Reich and Philip Glass to emerging composers Gabriella Smith and Carlos Simon โ€” including a recent composition of his own. Conversations with Adams, saxophone soloist Steven Banks, and bold young composers reveal images of American music past, present and future.
