Cage works: Jeanne Kirstein (prepared piano, piano, and toy piano); Feldman works: David Tudor, Morton Feldman, Edwin Hymovitz, Russell Sherman (pianos), Matthew Raimondi & Joseph Rabushka (violins), Walter Trampler (viola) & Seymour Barab (cello) This double-CD set combines two of the key titles of Columbia Records’s legendary “Music of Our
Time” series curated by David Behrman. Jeanne Kirstein’s recording of Cage’s early keyboard
works remains a touchstone of Cagean interpretation notwithstanding the passage of time.
Christian Wolff recalls, "I remember Cage saying that Jeanne Kirstein’s playing caught the spirit in
which the pieces were written at the time he wrote them—a kind of simple excitement and
enthusiasm (also, surely, out of the discovery of the preparing of the piano and the great new
sounds)." | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |

Marc Sabat (violin), Stephen Clarke (piano) Here, collected for the first time, are all of Morton Feldman's compositions for violin and piano. It is also a kind of walk through his compositional development, from the Webernesque early Piece for Violin and Piano (1950); through the experiments with graphic notation in Projection 4 (1951); followed by an excursion into the jungle-like density of David Tudor's energy in Extensions 1 (1951); to the cryptic notational riddles of Vertical Thoughts 2 (1963); from the dry carpet-dusting Spring of Chosroes (1977) to the extended sound canvas of the late Feldman in For John Cage (1982). He remarked, with an eye twinkling: "My music is just like Webern. Only a little bit longer." | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
