Violin and String Quartet, by Morton Feldman

Violin and String Quartet

by Morton Feldman

supported by

Michael Flaherty As label-mate Philip Thomas did for piano, Apartment House is setting the standard for Morton Feltman’s works for strings. The care and sensitivity shown to the music has made them, for me, the standard editions. That is certainly true with Violin and String Quartet.

I hope they will eventually take on the Sting Quartets (although I understand the challenges the second poses), and other chamber works.

about

Dating from two years before the composer's death in 1987, 'Violin and String Quartet' lasts two and a quarter hours, throughout which the strings weave gently shifting patterns of sound. It is one of Feldman's most beautiful pieces.

Due to the limits on file sizes allowed by Bandcamp, the piece has had to be been divided into 4 tracks, but these tracks should ideally be heard continuously without pause.

On CD the piece is a double album, with one break at 60 minutes.
