Nagoya Marimbas (full score & parts): each
Composer: Reich Steve

Nagoya Marimbas is somewhat similar to my pieces from the 1960s and 70s in that there are repeating patterns played on both marimbas, one or more beats out of phase, creating a series of two-part unison canons. However, these patterns are more melodically developed, change frequently, and each is usually repeated no more than three times, similar to my more recent work. The piece is also considerably more difficult to play than my earlier ones and requires two virtuoso performers. The work was commissioned by the Conservatory in Nagoya, Japan, to mark the opening of their new Shirakawa Hall in 1994 © 1998 Steve Reich"
