Event Detail

In this pre-concert talk, composer and performer Steve Reich discusses his music. We expect a full house. Seating is first come, first served, and we suggest that you arrive by 5:00 pm to get in line for admission. The line will form by the Recital Hall entrance on Russell Lane.

THIS CONCERT IS SOLD OUT! Famed modernist composer Steve Reich will be here in person for a rare San Diego performance of his Music for 18 Musicians (1974-1976), conducted by Steven Schick. Reich will be joined by the Bang on a Can All-Stars as well as red fish blue fish, UCSD's resident percussion ensemble. The program also includes Reich's hand-powered 1972 Clapping Music and his Electric Counterpoint, structured in three movements: Fast, Slow, Fast.
