Steve Reich's Drumming

Steve Reich’s Drumming is one of the iconic masterpieces of the last fifty years. Inspired by Reich’s studies in Ghana with master drummer Gideon Alorwoyie, it is a transcendent and dramatic tapestry of pounding bongo drums, mesmerising marimbas, glassy glockenspiels and women’s voices, with an irresistible sense of momentum. Colin Currie’s performances have led a new generation to rediscover this staggering masterwork.
