Join an ensemble of UWA Conservatorium staff and students for a performance of Terry Riley’s groundbreaking In C. The composition took Terry Riley less than a day to write after the idea of interlocking melodic patterns came to him on a bus ride home in 1964. It has since become a minimalist classic and one of the landmark works of 20th-century music. The concept is simple—musicians work their way through a series of fifty-three melodic cells at their own pace, guided in part by individual choices and in part by the will of the collective. No two performances are ever alike
