Minimalism

Minimalism has been a popular topic for examination boards for many years. The most enduring of contemporary classical music styles to emerge since the 1950s, it lends itself well to classroom teaching, with many of its processes being easy to explain and replicate in composition and classroom performance. The music itself, often being tonal or modal, has an accessible and attractive quality which has been assimilated into popular and film and TV music.
