Summary
In a panel discussion with performance excerpts, composer Steve Reich and his wife, videographer Beryl Korot, discuss their collaboration in creating the performance art piece, Three tales. Reflecting on the dramatic impact technology has exerted on life in the 20th century, Three tales contemplates three definitive historical moments: the 1937 Hindenburg crash, the nuclear bomb tests at the Bikini atoll in 1946, and the cloning of sheep Dolly in 1996. Includes excerpts from each of the three sections. Mary Sharp Cronson introduces the program.
