Anyone else a fan of this piece? I listened to it last night with my HD600s, pretty nice.

Here's a very lo-fi youtube version - the sound's not the greatest, but it's pretty interesting to see people actually play it!

Reich's purely instrumental works are pretty damn sublime--from the zen-like phasic harmonies of works like Drumming to the ethereal complexities of Music for Eighteen Musicians and Tehillim. I believe that I've got Six Marimbas somewhere, and I'll try to dig it up for a relisten.
