The 20th Century Music Concert Series is back again. This concert will take you to another dimension of Minimal Music, with three of its pioneers: John Adams, Phillip Glass and Steve Reich. Prominent features of Minimal Music are continuous repetition of musical patterns, pulses, phrases, maximum reduction of materials which the composers find unnecessary but build on highly logical and strict musical structures and forms. A special concert which will take you to totally new experiences and impressions.
The concert will be broadcast live on the fan page of the Goethe-Institut Hanoi on October 15, 2021 at 8 p.m.
