HMV Review
Composed over two years beginning in mid-1974, 'Music for 18 Musicians' is similar to the minimalist works of Philip Glass and Terry Riley. Like the works of the other minimalists, Reich's work breaks many rules while maintaining a connection to other musical traditions. While unmistakably modern, Reich's compositional techniques have a lot in common with 12th-century ecclesiastical composer Perotin, who combined swift and complex polyphony with a much slower bass line of Gregorian chants.
The intriguing nature of this composition makes for fascinating listening. Created without the use of synthesized instruments, these sounds are remarkably unusual. The listener will be as interested in how the music is performed as in how it sounds.

今まで15年間、ライヒアンサンブルのオリジナルしか知らなかった自分が恥ずかしい・・・。恐ろしいほどの完成型、途中から溢れる涙を押さえることが出来なかった。 ぜひ、オリジナルを良く知ってる人に聴いて欲しい。 この演奏を聴かずして死ねません。3 people agree with this review

彫塑的. かつてのようなモアレ効果は形を潜めその代わり曲の構成がクリアとなっている. 演奏者が大健闘.2 people agree with this review
