Terry Riley
Minimalist pioneer Terry Riley is one of modern music’s most visionary and significant figures. An extraordinary composer and musician whose work revolutionised and redefined 20th Century music, Riley’s legacy has overthrown aural traditions from classical to electronic to rock: the former as a contemporary of Steve Reich, Philip Glass and John Adams; the latter as a direct inspiration for The Who, Tangerine Dream, Brian Eno, Soft Machine and countless other pop colossi. Riley’s staggering collaborations, meanwhile, include a startling accord with the Velvet Underground’s John Cale; an enduring collusion with The Kronos Quartet; and a groundbreaking union with Indian raga master Prandit Pan Nath. http://www.triptychfestival.com |
