The study of non-western music led me back to myself’, said Steve Reich in an interview. The American composer was referring to the fact that, especially in retrospect, his music showed similarities to the traditional music of Africa and Indonesia: ‘I wound up looking under my own bed.’ The phenomenal work Music for 18 Musicians was Reich’s final breakthrough.
