This coffee break takes a quick trip to Bali to hear the Frog Song and the Monkey Chant then circles back to Steve Reich and more contemporary music to show how repetition creates pattern, repetition creates pattern, repetition creates pattern. We dip into some jazz with Take Five and So What to show how, in the hands of jazz masters, repetition can be downright cool. We dissect Mr. Somers' minimalist piece, Meditations on Jacob Wrestling.
