Such great video! This part is called "Come Out" created by Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker when she was at 22, is among Anne's marvelous choreographic unity "Fase, Four Movements to the Music of Steve Reich". The music "Come Out" was created by Steve Reich in 1966. I was luckily enough to watch Anne's live performance in Shanghai 2 days ago. Their movements on the stage were really remarkable & fasinating, the repetition of the music and selected movements, the devision of the space, the lighting. Anne explained they named each movement with lables A, B, C, D, A1, B2, C4, D3 etc in her interview.
THANK YOU. I've always appreciated ballet and dance but I could never explain or show something solid about why.... this video is hitting an awesome nerve.
Hey Ying that info its so important! thanks to share it! im really interested in this kind of compositions because rescently im making a music proyect based on this kind of musicians, like Reich, Ligeti Philip Glass and others! if you like i can show you that! im sure that it will be kind interesting for you
I don't know much to anything about dance. On the other hand I find modern compositional music deeply engaging. The way that De Kerermaeker internalized the work of Glass and transformed it into Fase transformed my opinion on dance.
Reich was one of the first composers of the mid-twentieth century to explore the concept of phase modulation and minimalism in his work. As one of his earliest works, "Come Out" uses a recording of a human voice because of the complex timbres, vowel sounds, and percussive consonant content within spoken word. As the piece progresses, all semblance of the original phase is dismantled while more layers and copies are added and slowly pushed out of phase. The dancing pairs well with the piece because they capture the essence of "together but separate" in their gestures, which can be interpreted as phase modulation in movement. Love it or hate it, Reich's work here paved the way for a lot of music released today. He also composed this in commemoration of the Harlem six, which is a history lesson for another time.
Watching this just made me cry. It's so descriptive, intense and yet locked in such a tiny area - like the real lives of us plebs, the ones who don't matter and never did. Come out! Dissent! In a moment of illumination the reason for everything becomes clear. Life afterwards, no matter what happens, now means something. They can and probably will break and shatter us, but that exaltation - it's beyond their claws. Come out and show them! It's worth it!
Utterly magnificent. Disturbing, compelling and spellbinding. I don't know who commissioned this, but they deserve an award,as do the dancers. A true work of art.
Absolutely astonishing. It's difficult music anyway, but to interpret it in such a superb manner is fitting. The physicality of those - identical but different - dancers, more production line than art school, is superb, their timing is amazing. I'm absolutely in awe of this piece of work, and whoever's responsible for it should be immensely proud, as should whoever came up with the excellent filming concepts, the immediacy of the sound interpretation and choreography. If I can persuade my daughter to watch this, she might suddenly get her daddy...
Come Out is a 1966 piece by American composer Steve Reich. Reich was asked to edit down tape footage into a form of collage for a benefit for the Harlem Six and Come Out was a byproduct of the collage's production. The Harlem Six were six black youths arrested for a murder of a white woman in Harlem in the weeks following the Little Fruit Stand Riot of 1964. Only one of the six was responsible while the lead witness is generally considered the actual perpetrator. Truman Nelson, a civil rights activist and New Yorker who had asked Reich to compose a sound collage that was separate from Come Out, gave him a collection of tapes with recorded voices to use as source material. Nelson agreed to give Reich creative freedom with the tapes that he presented him for the sound collage. Come Out was a loop of four seconds of the more than 70 hours of tapes Nelson presented to Reich.
the producers of this did a great job. it's the perfect setting in an empty modernist building, the camera work fits well, the editing becomes as choreographed and important as the dance itself
I first heard Come Out by Steve Reich on a sampler record called M.O.O.T. Music of Our Time probably in 1969. It was to promote progressive music put out by Columbia Records. It has well stood the test of time as has his long career. Great choreography here too!
Pretty ambitious especially due to the fact that this was made in 1966 and Reich was one of the first to experiment with tape looping, food for thought.
Actually the first experiments and recording with tape looping were done by Delia Derbyshire and the likes in the early 60's at the BBC Radiophonic Workshop.
This is a great rendering of Reich's minimalist tape piece into dance and movement. The two women explore phase relationships and random dynamics, and the result is captivating.
This piece of dance is a deeply formative aspect of my consciousness... and I discovered it at 39. This re-contextualised "Come out" to such a degree, that it colours my (likely rather pedestrian) understanding of Reich.
All things are art--and when you show someone something they question to be art, they will likely respond, "that's not art, that's ________." Something is only thought not to be art by the process of becoming trivialized, and therefore, the definition of art must be as subjective as the art itself.

@Christopher Elliott - Steve Reich worked with a *LOT* of different musical textures. This is an amazing work of electronic music and a really interesting deconstruction of speach. Additionally, the choreography is appropriate and frankly amazing. However, both take a long time to unfold - which is another characteristic of Steve Reich's work. Disapproving of something because of your ignorance says more about you than it does about the video.
me nibba this sucks the original "song" had a meaning, it was made for a purpose. to deliver a message to someone and that is genius imo this is random because people are obssesed with these kind of things the weirder/bizarre and uncomfortable, the more avant garde and revolutionary its been done a thousand times and its lazy. it was cool the first time but its not worth seeing/hearing it more than once or twice
really interesting and moving story behind the original sample, if anoone's interested: pitchfork.com/features/article/9886-blood-and-echoes-the-story-of-come-out-steve-reichs-civil-rights-era-masterpiece/
i must admit, this is not what i see in my head when i listen to this piece. i would put a different visual to this. but this is a fantastic piece of sound art. it has a strange, kind of scientific magic to it.
It's a beautiful thing that I can watch & listen to this incredibly obscure piece of art without leaving my seat.
I think you need to go back and re-read my post, as you've clearly misunderstood what I've written.

1966. One of the earliest source of techno music. More radical than anything produced nowadays. Historic masterpiece.

After 11 years , this exploration of counterpoint in movement still haunts me. Brava.

brilliant reading of the piece
This is definitely, an ASL or ballet dance demonstration on how "Come Out" echo sound would work. : )
This could easily pass as a future house track these days - what a masterpiece
first i can think of is Villalobos
Im SURE that i heard this as a sample in some gta 5 radio song like on soulwaxor some other shit
So hypnotic! I'm enjoying the trance feeling, can't stop watching/listening
This piece changed my life as exceptionally few pieces of art have.
How did it changed your life
i promise you your life must suck dude

One of Reich's earliest works. Tape loop.

C'est ce qui s'appelle y croire... Une vraie performance, j'adore !
Dynamic movements in a world class style performance, expressed passionately. Yay!
An outstanding piece and an outstanding performance!
It's surprisingly hypnotic.
One of the mist truthful pieces of art i ever saw…
This is hauntingly beautiful

Dan Wilcox It's a pretty good piece. I remember when Columbia released it. They mentioned it along with "Time has come today"
Dan Wilcox the choreography is from the 1980's though
+Vanessa DeWolf 1975 - women dancing on chairs, in shirt and slacks, comes directly from the staging of "Einstein on the Beach".
Actually the first experiments and recording with tape looping were done by Delia Derbyshire and the likes in the early 60's at the BBC Radiophonic Workshop.
Pierre Schaeffer in he 1940s/50s
Wow. That was really necessary. I'm so happy now.
Beautiful
Steve Reich, es uno de los pocos compositores de occidente que me hace sentir un contacto con lo etéreo.

I love this work since early graduate days. Now I love it even more.
one of the coolest things ive ever found on this website
step this way to explore the wonderful world of Steve Reich! It's Gonna Rain.
After the "tiny dancer" it's the turn of the lagging dancers! great!

I first heard this piece probably in the 70s on an "underground" radio station.
Even after 23 years.......I still have flashbacks sometimes
Beautiful!
Holy crap this is amazing
thank you for sharing this.
Can't believe I'm watching this in 2020.
im finding these kind of loops pretty good for studying to.
Sampled by Madlib on Madvillainy's "America's Most Blunted"
No way this “music video” was made in 1982, it's so ahead of its time.
can't just help but somehow come out to show them

First class art wank, got to love it.
art is not to please but to question and move you
All things are art--and when you show someone something they question to be art, they will likely respond, "that's not art, that's ________."

put down the pipe
The art of pleasing people is called entertainment.
Why do we have major 7th chords then. Because they are pleasing.
Use Earphones.
Now we know where "OA" got her "moves" from.

Wonderful! Please share the particular details of this performance though. Who? Where? When? It is way too good to hide.
Somebody listened to this while sitting in a room.
I wonder if there is a formula to calculate how long it will take until all the tracks are in sync again?
Lowest common multiple of phases, all phases will be in sync again
Makes sense

So as the the tape loop comes out of phase, their dance moves and gestures come out of phase.
Does anyone know who the choreographer is or the dancers? Thanks
