Happy Birthday, Steve Reich
The Steve Reich weekend started with Clapping Music from 1972 and finished with this from a couple of years later and despite being roughly the same era, they bookended it perfectly. Mallets might be his best piece, a perfect blend of maths and melody

#NowPlaying Steve Reich and Musicians - "Music for 18 Musicians"
This is possibly one of my favourite pieces of music ever. Seeing it performed live in Kraków by the Ensemble Modern, with Steve Reich himself on piano - well, it was verging on transcendental for me.

Someone needs to release a compilation of such early gems as this from Michael Nyman from 1976, where he takes a systems music approach to Johann Strauss’s Blue Danube
