- **Event Name**: Steve Reich: Music for 18 Musicians
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 26 Feb, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Thu, 26 Feb, 2026 at 08:30 pm
- **Event Description**: The Gardner’s new series, Thursday Night Music, launches with a bang. Making their Gardner debut, Ensemble Signal performs Steve Reich’s seminal minimalist work, Music for 18 Musicians. Music for 18 Musicians is an hour-long work featuring four grand pianos, three full-size marimbas, two xylophones, three singers, clarinet, violin, and cello. Drawn from a wide variety of influences including Balinese gamelan, plainchant, and jazz, it premiered 50 years ago in 1976. Music for 18 Musicians continues to loom large in today’s musical landscape; David Bowie included the 1978 recording among his 25 favorite albums of all time. This will likely be the first time the piece has been performed by a professional ensemble in Boston, just in time for the anniversary of its premiere and Reich’s 90th birthday. You won't want to miss it!
