He founded his own ensemble in 1966 and by the late 1960s was composing works based on the almost hypnotic repetition of short modular units of minutely changing chords, tonal progressions, chiming timbres, and steady rhythms. Having studied drumming in childhood, he has retained an interest in percussion and has incorporated such instruments as the Balinese gamelan and Ghanian tribal drums into his compositions. Voice is also an important component of many of his works. Critics have noted that over the years his works have become both more intimate, freer, and more expansive. Reich's compositions include the film score for Plastic Haircut (1963), Drumming (1971), Music for 18 Musicians (1974–76), Tehillim (1981), Different Trains (1988), City Life (1994), Proverb (1995), Triple Quartet (1999), Three Tales (2002), Double Sextet (2006; Pulitzer Prize), Pulse (2016), and Music for Ensemble and Orchestra (2018), his first orchestral work since Four Sections (1987). Reich, Steve(1936– ) composer; born in New York City. After musical studies at Juilliard and Mills College (with Berio and Milhaud), he formed a New York ensemble in 1965 to perform his stripped-down, highly repetitive music that was part of the "minimalist" movement. From the small ensembles of his early music, he extended his forces (the Music for 18 Musicians of 1975) and continued to use electronic and mixed-media means (the Different Trains of 1988, for live and taped strings).Steve Reich
