Steve Reich: Piano Phase
Steve Reich: Eight Lines
Steve Reich: Reich/Richter
Gerhard Richter, Corinna Belz: Moving Picture (946-3)

The composer Steve Reich and the painter Gerhard Richter are among the most important artists of our time. Now they have collaborated for the first time – along with filmmaker Corinna Belz, who has created a film in which the repetitive structures of Reich’s music enter into a dialogue with one of Richter’s paintings. As part of the rainy days festival, the Ensemble intercontemporain from Paris spans a wide arc ranging from Reich’s Piano Phase of 1967 to this new work, Reich/Richter, which had its world premiere in April in New York and receives its continental European premiere in Luxembourg.
