How shiveringly magical it is!

Such delightful attention and intention in performing this unusual music. Morton Feldman's music comes to us in so many forms. Each delightful. A very delightful person, too.

Others may not like it, but as a Bass Clarinet player I actually quite like this piece. It's very interesting and I love the atmosphere of suspense and mystery it creates. Also, props to her because I've played Bass Clarinet for about six years and I still struggle with some of those extremely high notes!

You either love it or you hate it. There is no middle ground with Feldman's music.

@DavidRutten 5 жыл бұрын

Meh, leaves me pretty cold either way. Certainly don’t love or like it, not enough there to hate either.

@ceef8688 3 жыл бұрын

yes, to be more precise, I think people almost all like it

@OnceTheyNamedMeiWasnt 3 жыл бұрын

The only middle is Feldman himself, chaining it to an unpredictable signature.

D,C#,B played by the bass clarinet over Bb drone played by tympani and marimba = Bb7b9 or Bb7altered dominant chord creating expectation in the listener. Also the short octatonic 8th note chords played together by the marimba players are the parent scale of said chord . So in the end it's all a minimalist meditation on that auxiliary diminished scale or the octatonic scale

Not really, it's not framed within a tonality.

@@jackgallahan9669 I don't think Feldman had a consistent, categorizable approach to tonality. He certainly didn't shun the octave the way the serialists did, but he also was very fond of m9ths and M7s very much like Webern. I think his general musical goal was to keep things in flux and not imply any kind of harmonic motion, so that any attempt to fit him into a tonal scheme is doomed to failure, and even kind of misses the point of his aesthetic.

This piece is a piece of peace; an absolute piece of peace. Pass a pint, and praise be to this piece: a pure piece; a purple piece; a piece of play appearing piece-by-piece. Peace comes slowly, and then it arrives. Peace be with us! And thank you for providing this piece of it...

It's an oddly compelling work. I commend you all on your ability to not only count the piece, but to play it with such sensitivity. (Not that if you miscounted it I would be able to tell, even if I were following the score!)

well, after a few minutes you think, that's done....! but it keeps going on forever... sorry but it's pitty that the composer didn't know how to write for the bass clarinet....!

It's a pity Feldman didn't have you around to learn about composition from, and had to make do with people like John Cage, George Antheil and Henry Cowell.
