The People United Will Never Be Defeated!

Album by Frederic Rzewski & Corey Hamm

The People United Will Never Be Defeated! is a solo piano album and composition by American composer-pianist Frederic Rzewski, released in 1975. It is a large-scale set of variations on a political song that blends minimalist repetition, virtuosic pianism, extended techniques and improvisatory passages, and it occupies a central place in Rzewski's output and in the late 20th-century contemporary piano repertoire.
