Infobox question[edit]

The prior version treated Drumming as an album, whereas it is properly a music composition. This is why I have totally rewritten it to reflect its status as the latter. I have left the album box info for now, but I really think that the box needs to be removed. Any other opinions here? Thanks, DJRafe (talk) 05:41, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that the box should be removed. Drumming is a composition, not an album. Froggy88 (talk) 20:51, 23 April 2008 (UTC)\[reply]

Album boxes have been removed. DJRafe (talk) 04:14, 24 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]


The article states that this was the last of Reich's pieces to employ the phasing, or phase shifting, technique. This is not true; Clapping Music, written in 1972, is the last Reich piece to use phasing Mrpatx (talk) 14:57, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Clapping Music does not use phasing, Six Pianos however, written in 1973, does actually use this technique, thus not making Drumming the last piece to use phasing. Porcupeth (Porcupeth) 18:44, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Title of article[edit]

Per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (pieces of music) it appears that the title of this article should be "Drumming (Reich)". Any thoughts/objections regarding changing it? Froggy88 (talk) 20:51, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm OK with that title change; it's more accurate. DJRafe (talk) 04:14, 24 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
"Drumming (piece)" has now been moved to "Drumming (Reich)". Froggy88 (talk) 15:53, 24 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks ...[edit]

... so very much. I heard this performed many, many years ago. Decades ago. And have never been able to track it down. Let's face it, "+drumming +reich" ain't great search terms! Huge gratitude from me for this. --BenTrem (talk) 05:26, 26 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Videos[edit]

I added two videos that show visualizations of the theoretical piece and an observed performance. I'm working with the author of the visualization, Michael Schutz who is adding some text. BenFictional (talk) 20:50, 21 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
