I was just randomly listening to suggestions on YouTube and selected Steve Reich's Variations for Winds, Strings, and Keyboards. I was struck how much the beginning reminded me of San Jacinto. I wonder if Gabriel was directly influenced by this piece. I believe he has cited Reich as an influence in general, though I don't know of any specific mention of this piece and San Jacinto.
