Album Notes & Community Reviews
This posthumous compilation collects several of the American composer's notoriously quiet, slowly unfolding vocal compositions. The performances embody Feldman's late-career obsession with scale, presenting deeply complex, avant-garde structures through incredibly sparse and sustained instrumentation.
