Against Feldman

About

Programme Poem Morton Feldman seems to have become the composers’ composer of the early 21st Century.

There are at least 143 works dedicated to him. Festivals are often dedicated to him.

At the risk of sounding out of step with modern trends I have to say I don’t believe the hype.

To me Feldman was an interesting character, with some good ideas but his music mostly leaves me cold.

As an antidote to all these pieces ‘for Morton Feldman’ here is a piece ‘Against Morton Feldman’. The piece is just over a minute long, fast and loud.
