Between 1988 and 2010, Steve Reich composed three string quartets - Different Trains, Triple Quartet and WTC 9/11. Deutsche Grammophon now presents this trilogy of works on one album for the first time, in definitive new recordings by the Mivos Quartet. Hailed by the Chicago Reader as "one of America's boldest and wildest new music ensembles," the Mivos players developed their interpretations of the three quartets - inspired by the music of language, the echoes of Bartók, and the events of a day marked by terror - in close collaboration with composer Steve Reich. Reich himself supported the project from start to finish, answering the group's questions about musical nuances, advising on style, and praising the finished album, now available digitally as well as on CD and vinyl (2 LPs).
