His non-film music falls on the lighter side of the Avant-Garde, abandoning the bold, abstract statements of Stockhausen in favor the more accessible ethnic sound of "The Michael Nyman Band." But just as important as his musical work is his scholarly work. His 1974 book Experimental Music: Cage and Beyond has become an essential text for both casual connoisseurs of the genre to well-versed academics. And, lest we forget, Nyman coined the universally accepted musical term which many use to classify some of his own work: minimalism. - Doug Russell]]> http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3357&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Twenty-First Century Fri, 16 Oct 2009 11:00:21 -0700 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.3357 art.3357 Arvo Part art.3357 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3357&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3357&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9991&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Avant-Garde Sun, 4 Oct 2009 09:42:31 -0700 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.9991 art.9991 David Darling art.9991 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9991&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9991&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.61192&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Ambient Sat, 3 Oct 2009 10:45:18 -0700 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.61192 art.61192 Jon Hassell art.61192 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.61192&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.61192&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1305&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Minimalism Sat, 12 Dec 2009 11:16:48 -0800 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.1305 art.1305 Steve Reich art.1305 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1305&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1305&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss It's Gonna Rain (1965) and Come Out (1966). During the late 1960s and into the '70s, Reich applied the technique to acoustic instruments, composing Violin Phase (1967) and the popular Drumming (1971). By Music for 18 Musicians (1976), the composer had garnered both critical and popular praise, which gave him license to explore more personal subjects. Tehillim (1981), Different Trains (1988) and his multimedia opera The Cave (1990-93) all explore aspects of his Jewish heritage. Though phasing techniques figure prominently in these works, the Minimalist preoccupation with process shares the stage with content, a marriage which has earned him enormous record sales and praise from listeners who tend to approach new music with extreme caution. - Doug Russell]]> http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.2360&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Minimalism Thu, 8 Oct 2009 11:44:39 -0700 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.2360 art.2360 John Adams art.2360 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.2360&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.2360&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Harmonielehre, in which the opening chords crash upon the listener with all the impact of an 18-wheeler being driven through a wall, leaving you with the same breathless feeling a Beethoven symphony can produce. The rush provided by the first movement is contrasted with the more subdued, lush and almost neo-Romantic second movement. In the third and final section, Adams allows for more than one tonal center, creating a kind of struggle that pushes the music forward with unshakeable vigor. - Will Lerner]]> http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9012&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Avant-Garde Thu, 18 Dec 2008 12:41:17 -0800 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.9012 art.9012 Dean Roberts art.9012 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9012&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9012&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1897&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Solo Instrumental Thu, 22 Oct 2009 13:23:58 -0700 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.1897 art.1897 Michael Harrison art.1897 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1897&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1897&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6988810&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Classical Fri, 18 Sep 2009 17:54:36 -0700 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.6988810 art.6988810 So Percussion art.6988810 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6988810&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6988810&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Amid the Noise found the group venturing into less immediately percussive territory with an album full of chiming harmonies as softly volatile as a field full of dandelion tufts. - Philip Sherburne]]> http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1679&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Minimalism Fri, 25 Sep 2009 10:14:33 -0700 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.1679 art.1679 Terry Riley art.1679 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1679&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1679&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.56322&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Experimental Mon, 9 Feb 2009 10:20:13 -0800 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.56322 art.56322 Henry Flynt art.56322 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.56322&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.56322&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6438792&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Minimal/Glitch Fri, 4 Dec 2009 13:19:35 -0800 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.6438792 art.6438792 William Basinski art.6438792 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6438792&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6438792&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Shortwave Music, a collage made from snippets of shortwave radio broadcasts, marked his debut release in 1998, when Carsten Nicolai picked it up for his Raster-Noton label. Basinski's breakout moment came with the first volume of The Disintegration Loops, an exhumation of reel-to-reel archives in which the crumbling magnetic tape became an integral part of the project's corroded, dissipating sound world. His recordings, prolific since then, don't vary much: you can expect plangent acoustic samples stretched to the point of disintegration; his "melodies" are but a blurry wash of mantra-like loops. But this is no aural wallpaper. His music has the melancholic feel of grave rubbings, with traces of the distant past lingering in the very ink and cloth. - Philip Sherburne]]> http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.26742104&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Minimalism Wed, 5 Aug 2009 11:18:28 -0700 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.26742104 art.26742104 Panic Corp. art.26742104 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.26742104&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.26742104&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3414&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Avant-Garde Sun, 5 Oct 2008 08:14:19 -0700 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.3414 art.3414 Eliane Radigue art.3414 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3414&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3414&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.25442774&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Minimalism Fri, 29 May 2009 09:41:41 -0700 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.25442774 art.25442774 Dj Julian Jaks art.25442774 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.25442774&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.25442774&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7058751&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Avant-Garde Wed, 6 May 2009 09:33:44 -0700 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.7058751 art.7058751 Phill Niblock art.7058751 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7058751&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7058751&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3393&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Minimalism Wed, 6 May 2009 09:33:44 -0700 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.3393 art.3393 Charlemagne Palestine art.3393 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3393&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3393&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.22782953&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Minimalism Wed, 3 Sep 2008 08:52:48 -0700 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.22782953 art.22782953 Bratislava Veni Ensemble art.22782953 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.22782953&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.22782953&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7672406&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss Post-Rock Sun, 13 Sep 2009 09:19:54 -0700 Top Minimalism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.7672406 art.7672406 Christopher Bissonnette art.7672406 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7672406&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7672406&variant=data&rws=%2Fclassical%2F20th-21st-century%2Fminimalism%2Fartist-chart.rss
