Feldman has found a kind of perfect timing to allow musical tones to simply be their beautiful selves and for us to experience them as deep mysterious entities. The graphic is a Brice Marden drawing which I think is the case of another artist trying to integrate the beauties of the calligraphies of the East into Western art. Even if it can never be entirely successful he's made a good job of it.

@Jeff Sylvester This was written 2 years before his death and he was a well known composer. But the recording system made it possible for composers to get their work into distribution without premieres and concerts. I don't know the history of this piece. I have to believe if it used prepared piano it would have been mentioned by someone, for example Hamelin. I don't pretend to be knowledgeable about the nuts and bolts of music so I hardly know what Feldman means by the following, but here it is anyway. "For me, rhythm doesn’t exist. I would rather use the term “rhythmicize.” I started to get interested in metre; for me, at the moment when you use it, it implies the question, “How do I get beyond the bar-lines?” I wrote down 4/4, left a little space, drew a bar-line and then I wrote over that bar-line. “The black hole of metre,” because some people shouldn’t come too close to the bar-line - there is a lot of music where the style tends to pull it across the bar-line. For Bunita Marcus mainly consists of 3/8, 5/16 and 2/2 bars. Sometimes the 2/2 had musical importance, like at the end of the piece. Sometimes the 2/2 acts as quiet, either on the right or the left or in the middle of a 3/8 or a 5/16 bar, and I used the metre as a construction - not the rhythm - the metre and the time, the duration which something needs. What finally interested me were the “development sections,” where I was using mixed-metre. It went 2/2, 3/4, 5/8 … so I used metre up to a certain point as a period of instability. I didn’t consider it a development section where I - I can’t find a better expression - developed the metre. Then, like every other composer, I thought, how much change is possible in this grid? And I said; accelerate it or slow it down. But I couldn’t make a definitive plan - that wouldn’t work. It can only work if you go along with the material and see how it is turning out."

For Bunita Marcus was premiered by my friend Aki Takahashi, a japanese piano player, in 2010 she premiered my piano and electronics work Ashimakase, 10 minutes as an openinf to this wonderfull piece, it was an honor to open the concert for Feldman, one of my favourite composers, if any one is interested here is the link for Ashimakase soundcloud.com/artesonico/ashimakase

One has to ask after reading Feldman : much thought and reflexion but outside of the concert hall who will digest or take the time to listen to one hour , 90 minute and 2 hour pieces . I've forgotten Feldman's explanation on this point . His jewish jokes tell us a lot . He did what he wanted it was maybe a way too to carve out a space for himself alongside Cage, Carter, Babbit , Earle Brown and others . I d k .

It is quite shallow, not at all evocative and just makes me think of the foam of soft waves under a sky dumb and sooty! Structures that float and slide over each other, expand and contract in vain peristaltic movements ! However, this poses an interesting idea, as to reinterpret the silence as a 'inter-pitch fill', a a meaningful musical element that occurs when all sounds cease. The musician not only plans the duration and rhythms of sounds but the rhythms and duration of silence, to compose with rests in mind. In this case, the idea reinterprets the silence not as a 'physical silence', but as a 'notation silence', not a literal silence but a figurative silence.
@markpx5 жыл бұрын
I don't think Feldman is trying to be evocative of anythign so crude as ocean waves, etc. He's exploring structures of memory, lingering correspondances and deflections, neural stimuli that arise and diffuse without settling into fixed ideas, contemplations that bring about a state of passive alertness, etc. The silence idea you describe can be heard in the compositions of Feldman's friend and contemporary Christian Wolff.

More typical late Feldman. I've been surveying his music for a while now, and reading some of the books about him (8th Street, MF Says, Music of..., etc). The thing that interests me about Feldman is that this is the first "classical" music I've heard where I have thought, "I could have composed that." Indeed, this music is inspiring me to write some things myself. I really appreciate his intuitive, non-systematic approach. It basically negates the whole question of "artistic value" (by admitting up front that none is expected or demanded). Concerning the whole "me too" aspect of the Feldman/Bunita Marcus relationship, it is indeed regrettable. Who's going to be outed next? Every time I listen to music, now, I always think, "Gosh, I wonder who this composer abused?" It's all becoming quite tiresome. I just wish that men would behave more honourably.

In an Italian interview, Bunita Marcus accuses her mentor Morton Feldman of sexually molesting her and other women, wrecking her marriage and stealing her ideas. The two composers worked closely together for seven years until Feldman’s early death in 1987. Feldman’s work is widely performed, Marcus’s less so.
