Frederic Rzewski- Coming Together and Attica, narrated by Corey Dargel

'Minimal music is perhaps best described as slowly changing relationships. During the 1960's, process music began to bridge a gap between the highly experimental and academic electronic music and the popular music of the time. Linear additive (or subtractive) process is defined as the addition (or subtraction) of one event at a time. The event could be a note, a word, etc.'- Donna McCabe
