Synopsis: "Steve Reich, an important 'first generation' minimalist composer, remains one of the foremost composers of our time. While throughout the years, Reich has performed and recorded worldwide, some of his most dynamic performances have taken place at The Kitchen, including a performance by Mr. Reich and Musicians that was recorded in 1977. Now this recording, which had since been held in The Kitchen's extensive archives of historic audio and videotapes, is released by Orange Mountain Music, in collaboration with The Kitchen. Of From The Kitchen Archive No. 2, Steve Reich and Musicians – Live 1977, Reich said in 2005, 'Not studio recordings. Unedited. Background traffic noise on Violin Phase & Music for Pieces of Wood. And yet- Real musical energy. Live performances. Intense young performers. Something special from 1977.'" -from The Kitchen
