This unusual collection is dedicated to a very popular style: minimalist music. The style has evolved from austere, almost strict repetition to a more varied and free approach to material and technique. The set includes works for solo piano by most of the famous 'minimalist' composers covering three generations from Cage, through Riley and Glass to Adams and Nyman.
