* In this episode of 'Listening in', I analyse Steve Reich's masterpiece - 'Music for 18 Musicians'. I look at the harmonic language that the piece uses, the construction of the work as a whole as well as the some of the melodic lines that make up the piece. But ultimately, I consider how, despite the precise nature of its construction, 'Music for 18 Musicians' is a music of humanity.
