The ethics of minimalism: from Arvo Pärt's tintinnabuli (1976) — notes as simple as bells, silence as structure — to Steve Reich's process music (1976), where repetition becomes meditation. This hour traces the line from sacred minimalism to process as philosophy: what happens when music strips away complexity to reveal what was always there?
Tracklist: Arvo Part — Spiegel Im Spiegel · Philip Glass & Ravi Shankar — Ragas in minor scale · Steve Reich — Section 7 · John Adams — Rag The Bone · Michael Gordon, Kronos Quartet — The Sad Park. Part 1: Two evil planes broke in little pieces and fire came.
