<body> <a href="http://www.minimalistensemble.co.uk">www.minimalistensemble.co.uk</a> </p> <p>Join 100 musicians to perform in the Sheldonian Theatre, Oxford!</p> <p>The Oxford Minimalist Ensemble (OME) is a chamber ensemble based in Oxford and founded by <a href="conductor.htm">Alexander Campkin</a>. </p> <p>It was founded to represent the influential wave of Minimalist music that began in the US in the 1960s. Pioneers of minimalism include composers such as Terry Riley, Steve Reich and Philip Glass. Later composers include John Adams (whose influences include rock music) and Michael Nyman who is best known for his film scores. </p> <p>This extremely influential style of composition has until recently been largely neglected on the stages of Oxford music. The Oxford Minimalist Ensemble will begin to fill this void in Oxfordshire. </p> <p>The <a href="sheldonian.htm">next concert</a> is on Thursday 11th May at 8pm.</p> <p>Play an instrument?
