In C Interlude is a work inspired by Terry Riley’s famous ground breaking open score composition, “In C”, written in 1964. In his new work Nyman harnesses some of the ’60s pulse-like energy along with ideas he explored in earlier works like “In Re: Don Giovanni” to create a unique, open ended, open scored, 80 bar show stopper.
