Biography

New York composer Morton Feldman (1926-1987) was a central figure of the New York School with *John Cage*, an early pioneer of graphic scores and indeterminate notation. His mature works, including 'Rothko Chapel' (1971) and the six-hour String Quartet No. 2 (1983), pursue hushed, slowly shifting patterns at extreme length. He taught at Buffalo from 1972 and died there in 1987.
