Steve Reich - Violin Phase (1967) - Original 1969 Recording

First recording of Violin Phase by Steve Reich from the album “Steve Reich: Live/Electric Music“ and performed by the late great Paul Zukofsky. For this release, Zukofsky chose to record the piece at only three-quarters of Reich’s suggested tempo in order to make the shifting patterns more apparent to the listener. To hear the piece as it is normally performed, change the speed to 1.5 using the settings icon.
