Minimalism: Steve Reich-Philip Glass takes the Steve Reich items from a famous 1985 album - one of the last things produced by EMI's Los Angeles-based classical division - and combines them with a 1973 Reich track originally paired with John Cage and two Philip Glass pieces from a very successful Virgin disc led by Christopher Warren-Green that. The John Adams piece that was paired with Ransom Wilson's interpretations of Eight Lines and Vermont Counterpoint has been moved off to an all-Adams disc within the series, Shaker Loops from the Warren-Green, and two additional Simon Rattle recordings make up the balance of the Adams disc.
