The People United Will Never Be Defeated!

Album by Frederic Rzewski & Igor Levit

The People United Will Never Be Defeated! is a 1975 set of piano variations by American composer Frederic Rzewski. The work combines virtuosic modernist pianism, folk-derived thematic material and improvisatory extended techniques across its variations, and it signalled a marked instance of political engagement in Rzewski's oeuvre and in late 20th-century contemporary piano repertoire.
