For this edition of New Sounds, we take a look back at the career of composer Steve Reich on the occasion of his 70th birthday. With help from the brand-new 5-CD box set of Reich’s works on Nonesuch Records, host John Schaefer presents works from Reich’s early taped pieces to his most recent works, including pieces for dance, You Are (Variations), and much more.
