Six Pianos is a minimalist piece for six pianos by the American composer Steve Reich. It was completed in March 1973. The world première performance of Six Pianos was in May 1973 at the John Weber Gallery in New York City. A friend in New York gave him and his fellow musicians access to the Baldwin Piano and Organ Company's premises during evenings, where they could try out ideas. Reich eventually settled on an ensemble of six upright pianos in close proximity, which would allow very precise timing without being masked by the resonance of grand pianos.[1]
