“Greilsammer assembles four 'mini-sets', each containing three works. The first and third pieces are by Baroque keyboard composers, while the second is by a late-20th- or earl 21st-century composer...Usually such programming ideas seem pretentious or sound forced but Greilsammer's stylistic juxtapositions mostly work...In all, a stimulating, outstandingly executed and superbly engineered programme.” Gramophone Magazine, May 2012 “When it comes to artful programming, David Greilsammer is a past master...Greilsammer can be infuriatingly self-conscious at times. But persevere: he's also an illuminating companion full of pellucid insights, studied elegance and, in the contemporary works, as compelling when negotiating nocturnal Feldman as he is viscerally persuasive conjuring up Porat's edgy verve.” BBC Music Magazine, February 2013 **** | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | Feldman: Early Piano Pieces
Together with John Cage, Earle Brown and Christian Wolff, Morton Feldman is ascribed to the New York School of Music. Feldman's music is characterized by minimalist structures (although he was never close to the minimalism of Steve Reich or Philipp Glass) and contemplative sounds (without being “meditational music”). His works are based on the concept of “lessness”, i.e. they do not want to express anything and follow no logic of musical development. Nevertheless, his works are of utmost complexity and require an extremely sensitive interpretation that is focussed down to the last detail. The piano pieces compiled on the present two CDs cover a period of composition of almost 30 years. Feldman wrote for the piano throughout his life; he loved this instrument, which he also played. The spectrum of pieces presented here therefore represents a good cross-section of his entire compositional output. |
