The Third Reich

by Jim Redfarn

I was really referring to the composer Steve Reich, rather than Adolf. Certainly there's no hint of Wagner! The piece is made up of small sections with instruments going out of sync, or playing in conflicting time signatures. AMPLE seems ideal for this sort of thing. In the real Reich things change much more slowly and subtly, but I'm an impatient man.
