| | Steve Reich : Phase Patterns/Pendulum Music/Piano Phase/Four Organs - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect |
 | | By the '90s, a number of record labels began to re-investigate some of the earlier, pre-fame works of minimalist composers, both established figures (such as Reich, Glass, and Riley), as well as those who were less well-known. |
 | | Phase Patterns and Four Organs had been issued on an obscure Shandar LP, and the latter had also been available on a Columbia recording paired with some John Cage pieces for prepared piano. |
 | | Piano Phase, for two pianos, uses a similar methodology but comes to quite different ends due to the acoustic nature of the instrument. |
