Steve Reich at 90! at Roulette Intermedium (Site)

The John Cage Trust is celebrating iconic American composer Steve Reich as he turns 90!

Join for this not-to-be missed evening—sure to sell out—with Steve Reich himself in attendance, and featuring some of his very favorite musicians and works.

The evening begins with a lavish vegetarian birthday gala dinner with Steve, followed by a very special concert, all at Roulette Intermedium in Brooklyn.

Here’s the amazing lineup so far:

• pianist Stephen Drury performing John Cage’s “In a Landscape”
• vocalists Meredith Monk with Katie Geissinger and Allison Sniffin performing Monk’s “Memory Song” and “Panda Chant I”
• percussionists Garry Kvistad and Russell Hartenberger (of the original Steve Reich Ensemble) performing Reich’s “Clapping Music”
• electric guitarist Mark Stewart performing Reich’s “Electric Counterpoint”
• a tribute by David Lang
• plus special surprise guest performers and more!

By attending this historic night, you also raise necessary support for the John Cage Trust, a nonprofit organization that not only preserves and promotes the work of Cage (1912–1992), but fosters the ongoing legacy of his generative influence and spirit through a variety of programs, and by maintaining the Cage Trust archives. Located on the campus of Bard College, we welcome visitors—musicians, scholars, educators, artists, and all interested—throughout the year to programs and tours, as well as collaborate with partners worldwide on exhibitions and performances. At the John Cage Trust, we’re interested not so much in what John Cage has done, but in what his legacy is still doing today. Your support helps make this possible!
