Tubular Bells: The Mike Oldfield Story
New York Charles Hazlewood concludes his exploration of minimalism, classical music's last great `movement', which climaxed in the late 1970s on America's east coast. In the second of two episodes, he explores how breakthrough techniques first explored on tape by Steve Reich were transposed for orchestral performance, and how Philip Glass' experiments with repetitive structures along with his innovative work in opera, revealed new possibilities for classical music. The programme includes excerpts from minimalist pieces, plus part of Mike Oldfield's minimalist-inspired Tubular Bells. Contributors include Jarvis Cocker
