    Extractions: Morton Feldman was born in New York on January 12, 1926. At the age of twelve he studied piano with Madame Maurina-Press, who had been a pupil of Busoni, and it was her who instilled in Feldman a vibrant musicality. At the time he was composing short Scriabin-esque pieces, until in 1941 he began to study composition with Wallingford Riegger. Three years later Stefan Wolpe became his teacher, though they spent much of their time together simply arguing about music. Then in 1949 the most significant meeting up to that time took place - Feldman met John Cage 1967 saw the start of Feldman's association with Universal Edition with the publication of his last graphically notated score, "In Search of an Orchestration". Then followed "On Time and the Instrumental Factor" (1969) in which he once more returned to precise notation, and from then on, with only the exception of two works in the early 1970s, he maintained control over pitch, rhythm, dynamics and duration. In 1973 the University of New York at Buffalo asked Feldman to become the Edgard Varese Professor, a post he held for the rest of his life. From the late 1970s his compositions expanded in length to such a degree that the second string quartet can last for up to five and a half hours. The scale of these works in particular has often been the cause for the controversy surrounding his works, but he would always be happy to attempt to explain his reasoning behind them:

22. Über Morton Feldman Sprechen Von Eberhard Blum
    Vier Artikel von Eberhard Blum zum Komponisten und seine Musik.  
    http://www.cnvill.demon.co.uk/mfblum.htm
    
    Extractions: Bericht Der vorliegende Text ist das Ergebnis eines Gespräches zwischen Aurel Schmidt von der "Basler Zeitung" und dem Flötisten Eberhard Blum. Das Gespräch fand am 10. Januar 1992 in Berlin statt. Der Text wurde zuerst in der "Basler Zeitung" veröffentlicht und später in der Zeitschrift "Positionen" (Heft 11, November 1992). Das Künstlerprogramm des DAAD lädt regelmäßig Komponisten, bildende Künstler, Schriftsteller, Filmemacher und Architekten ein, um einige Zeit in Berlin zu leben und zu arbeiten. Der amerikanische Komponist Morton Feldman wurde ebenfalls eingeladen und lebte ein Jahr lang, von Mitte 1971 bis Mitte 1972, in Berlin. Er hat während dieser Zeit mehrere große Werke komponiert. Es war für Feldman eine wichtige Zeit, zumal er zum ersten Mal in seinem Leben außerhalb von New York und damit auch außerhalb von Amerika lebte. Ich kannte Feldman damals vom Namen her, vor allem durch meine Arbeit als Interpret der Werke von John Cage. Wenn man mit Cage zu tun hat, kommt man sehr schnell auch zu Feldman. In einem Konzert, mit dem sich Feldman in Berlin vorstellte, wurden Klavierwerke von ihm gespielt. Dieses Konzert hat mich stark beeindruckt. Damals habe ich Musik von Feldman zum ersten Mal richtig gehört. Plattenaufnahmen gab es noch sehr wenig. Feldman wurde nur hin und wieder aufgeführt, meistens wurde er als einer dieser halbverrückten Amerikaner angesehen. Das war 1971, ist also lange her. Cage war in Europa schon bekannt durch seine Zusammenarbeit mit der Merce Cunningham Dance Company und durch siene Auftritte in Köln, aber Feldman, dessen Musik äußerlich nicht so spektakulär ist, war weit weniger bekannt.

Feldman's artistic principles were shaped in the early 1950s by his association with composers Cage, Earle Brown and David Tudor, and painters Philip Guston, Mark Rothko, Jackson Pollock and Robert Rauschenberg, to name a few. In keeping with Feldman's aesthetic privileging of scale over form, For Philip Guston , composed in memory of his late friend, expands to a monumental five hours. On the front cover of the comprehensive 4-CD set is a reproduction of Feldman's portrait by Philip Guston. The liner notes include a conversation between composers Walter Zimmerman and Kotik, exploring the many facets of Feldman's music." Recorded in 1995 and performed by S.E.M.

    Extractions: Xenakis : No, I told Mr. Feldman yesterday how much I enjoyed the piece. That I thought it was fascinating and then he stopped me and said, "I have to explain in philosophical terms what I wanted to say with the music." I said, "There's no need." Sometimes I think composers talk too much. There is only music, that's it! I mean, it can be well played or badly played or... Yesterday we had a very good performance. Do you agree?

29. Thomas Moore, Pianist - Interviews
    Interview with morton feldman.  
    http://research.umbc.edu/~tmoore/feldman1.html
    
    Extractions: in conversation with Thomas Moore On 9 November 1983 I interviewed composer Morton Feldman at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. We had just heard Feldman's For John Cage , beautifully performed by violinist Paul Zukofsky and pianist Ursula Oppens. The interview was published by the journal Sonus (Volume 4, Number 2, Spring 1984) as a verbatim transcript, but unfortunately the editors took it upon themselves to "clean up" Feldman's grammar, so although he said, "Cage and myself are still doing the most interesting work," the version in Sonus says, "Cage and I are still doing the interesting work." Such alterations were made throughout the interview, without my permission. So I've posted here the "real" interview for your enjoyment. Thomas Moore: In the '50s you became involved with not only John Cage, David Tudor and Earle Brown but also the painters Rothko, Rauschenberg and de Kooning. What did you absorb from the visual artists as opposed to the musicians? Morton Feldman: Well, you have to remember that I met Cage not in the '50s but in 1950, which is important. It was the beginning of everything in my life and to some degree of that particular art world, too. Not that fabulous work wasn't done, say, in the late '40s, but Rauschenberg didn't come into town until 1951. It was a very important period for everybody, that dateline, '50-'51.

    Extractions: Am Sonntag, den 5. Juli 1987 nahm ich auf dem Flugplatz Schiphol Abschied von Morton Feldman. Mit dem Tod auf den Fersen war er vier Tage lang in Middelburg als Leiter der Meisterklasse für Komposition tätig gewesen. Anfang Juni hèrte er von seiner unheilbaren Krankheit. Seine Willenskraft gebot ihm jedoch, seinem Hobby weiter nachzugehen, das Kommunizieren mit Publikum und Musik. Deswegen kam er zum dritten Mal nach Middelburg, der Stadt, in der er sich zuhause fühlte. Beim Abschied mußte ich ihm versprechen, daß er nach seinem Urlaub zu einer Meisterklasse in den Herbstferien wiederkommen könnte ... Aus einem Interview mit Fritz Lagerwerff fair Nieuwe Muziek: "Ich bin an Kommunikation interessiert. Aber doch an einer besonderen Art von Kommunikation; nicht im Sinn der sechziger Jahre, als das so ein geflügeltes Wort wurde. Meine Beziehung zum internationalen Konzertpublikum mir nämlich absolut erfrischend sein. Ich bin zur Beispiel kein Befürworter von Werten des Establishment, noch bin ich jemand, der eine von vornherein festgelegte Funktion in der Gesellschaft hat. Unterhaltung und Virtuositát interessieren mich nicht, vielmehr eine

He studied composition and counterpoint with Wallingford Reggel at 15 and at 18 studied briefly with Stefan Wolpe. At 24 he met John Cage, a meeting which began an artistic association of crucial importance to Feldman: "I brought John a string quartet. He looked at it for a long time and then said, 'How did you make this?...' In a very weak voice I answered John, 'I don't know how I made it.' The response to this was startling. John jumped up and down and with a kind of high monkey squeal, screeched, 'Isn't that marvelous. Isn't that wonderful. It's so beautiful, and he does't know how he made it.' Quite frankly, I sometimes wonder how my music would have turned out if John had not given me those early permissions to have confidence in my instincts." Thus began Feldman's association with a wide range of contemporary artists experiment within and across disciplines - composers Earle Browne, Christian Wolff and David Tudor, painters Willem de Kooning, Jackson Pollack, Franz Kline, and Mark Rothko, choreographer Merce Cunningham, and multi-disciplinary artist Robert Rauschenberg. Over the course of his career he wrote music for a wide variety of media - orchestra, chorus and solo voices with or without instrumentation, and ensembles and solo instruments. He composed pieces for ballet and film. He became known for his mystical, spare, graphically notated and indeterminate pieces that focused on sound rather than form.

40. Der Ekstase Des Augenblicks Von Frank Denyer Und James Fulkerson
    Über die drei Schaffensperioden von morton feldman und Erläuterungen zu verschiedenen Werken.  
    http://www.cnvill.demon.co.uk/mfeomgr.htm
    
    Extractions: Feldmans Suche nach der Ekstase der Augenblicks by Frank Denyer: Morton Feldman sagte einmal, er habe den Schritt vom 'unbekannten' Komponisten zum 'Meister' vollzogen, ohne zu wissen, wann dies geschah. Wie immer man auch Feldman und seine Arbeit auffaßt, er hinterließ ein bewundernswertes Gesamtwerk, das immer bekannter wird und jetzt auf CDs einem größeren Publikum zugänglich ist. Die meisten der verfügbaren Aufnahmen sind späte Werke, die wegen ihrer Länge sich die Möglichkeiten des Mediums CD zunutze machen. Meiner Auffassung nach umfaßt Morton Feldmans Werk im wesentlichen drei verschiedene Perioden: eine Frühe Periode , die in den späten vierziger Jahren anfängt, eine Mittlere Periode , welche die späten sechziger und frühen siebziger Jahre umfaßt, und eine Schlußperiode von den frühen achziger Jahren an.
