During Covid lockdown in January 2021 Apartment House performed a series of three concerts in a single day at Wigmore Hall in London. All three concerts were devoted to the music of Morton Feldman, and all were broadcast live to an online audience around the world. One of the highlights of the day was their realisation of Piano and String Quartet in the final of the three concerts. Like many of Feldman’s late works, Piano and String Quartet is an exceptionally long work, and listening to Apartment House’s performance, we immediately wanted to record their interpretation and release it as a CD.
We asked Anton Lukoszevieze, the leader of Apartment House, who had programmed the Wigmore Hall concerts, why he had chosen this piece.
