Minimalism
Minimalism in music is a genre characterized by its use of repetitive motifs, gradual transformations, and a focus on simplicity, often creating a hypnotic or meditative auditory experience. Emerging in the late 1960s, this genre was pioneered by composers like Steve Reich, Philip Glass, and La Monte Young, who sought to strip music down to its essentials, exploring the profound impact of subtle variations over time. Its influence extends across various styles, blending seamlessly into contemporary classical, electronic, and even pop music, challenging listeners to find beauty in restraint and repetition.
