The following information is about Minimalism.
Minimalism Defined
A musical movement that emerged from the academic avant-garde of the 1960s. Reacting against the prevailing trends in composition exemplified by Stockhausen and Shoenberg, several composers took as inspiration the modalism of Indian classical music and the cyclical patterns of African drumming. These new compositions were characterized by repeated patterns that evolved slowly through addition or subtraction of elements, or by shifting patterns against one another. The best-known minimalist composers are Philip Glass, Terry Riley and Steve Reich, all of whom took inspiration from the earlier work of Lamonte Young. None of them accept the tag of "Minimalism" for their work, but it is a helpful shorthand to refer to these and other artists working in similar areas.
