It's one thing to master a genre, quite another to pioneer one. Terry Riley has succeeded at both. His long and winding career began as he explored what would become known as the Western classical school of minimalism, alongside contemporaries such as Pauline Oliveros, Morton Subotnick and Steve Reich in ’60s California.
Terry Riley discussed the genius of John Coltrane, his solo all-night concerts with the Phantom Band and the process of plunderphonics in this public lecture as part of Red Bull Music Festival Paris 2018.

__________________________
The early influence of jazz greats such as John Coltrane and Miles Davis, as well as the work of his friend and peer La Monte Young, fueled his desire for experimentalism, resulting in unique pieces such as “In C,” a modular musical construction considered by many to be the first minimalist composition. His years spent crisscrossing the globe also fed directly into his work, and would eventually lead to him meeting Pandit Pran Nath, the Indian classical teacher who would go on to have a profound impact on Riley’s life and music. His seminal album A Rainbow In Curved Air, released in 1969, captured the freewheeling bliss of the late ’60s and would go on to inspire the likes of the Who’s Pete Townshend and Mike Oldfield, even appearing in the soundtrack to Grand Theft Auto IV.

A tip : you can watch series at flixzone. I've been using them for watching a lot of movies during the lockdown.

@Rhett Ulises definitely, have been using flixzone for months myself =)
God, I just love when the interviewer tells the subject about their career...
they're between two ferns
Terry is ASMR...BEFORE ASMR!!!
I am sorry but the interview is very very bad. Terry is a living wonder, and interviewer is getting the answers that can be read on Wikipedia. It is not worth the time and energy of maestro. Why do you force him to listen to his music? How is this good for anybody? Music is very accessible to anyone, and being able to speak to Terry is not accessible at all. Wish to see something better in future.

and the sound production is dreadful - this is a music academy ,wtf?
still love your work!!
This is a tragedy watching the interviewer just go through his autobiography - you can find all this stuff on a Wikipedia article. It is a huge waste of an opportunity. There are only rare moments where Terry has a chance to talk about music.

It’s from Red Bull. It’s like a Tedtalk. We need to “booo” harder at this kind of vanilla, watered down, sterilized bs. I don’t blame T. Riley (love his work) or anyone real that ends up in these scenarios. Hopefully though we will continue to encourage souls on the platforms to subvert the formulas and throw their canned crap out the window and play with it, fuk with it.
It would have been nice to hear the music examples.
Agree
Pourquoi avoir coupé les extraits musicaux ?
It’s a shame the audio samples are not played at least for 5 seconds or so.
22:51 😳😳😳

no comment...flat interview with one of the finest musicians on earth.... booooooring questions
Tired of these interviewers only interested in the subject’s past.
Knxwledge please
The irony of watching the contemporary master wizard of all musicians be interviewed by an honorable mediocrity is both sadly enticing and shyly annoying; maybe it's because the interviewer and the audience are French, whereas the subject is a purely worldly, intricately indigenous American.
The interviewer comes across like a doctor with a busy schedule. He shouldn't hold the microphone permanently close to his mouth and nostrils either Lol
Smug interviewer. Ughh
Interviewer needs a bit of practice, he makes it very painful to watch
