Four Organs

Four Organs is a work by Steve Reich.

It consists of four organs, which through the duration of the piece expound harmonically a dominant eleventh chord by emphasizing certain tones of the chord; at the climax of the work each tone sounds almost in sequence.

A continuous maraca beat serves to act as a rhythmic framework for the chords to be placed upon.
