Jazz, Indian ragas, psychedelic drugs, Webernian serialism, Japanese gagaku, Cage-esque approach to silence and coincidence all influenced the work of La Monte Young and Terry Riley.
They first met in the late 1950s. Both cultivated music full of repetitions and long static structures. Later it came to be called minimalism and Young, with the help of music publicists, claimed to be its father. At a time when the most avant-garde, complex compositions were being produced in Europe, Terry Riley made do with thirty-three fragments in C major and Young with one perfect fifth. A radical simplicity that both provokes and comforts to this day.
