Morton Feldman Returns to Eighth Street

New York Studio School celebrates the groundbreaking and hugely influential composer Morton Feldman, who was Dean of NYSS from 1969 to 1971. Acclaimed violinist Miranda Cuckson and pianist Conor Hanick will perform a concert of works by Feldman, whose musical creativity was intertwined to a remarkable degree with the visual arts and his personal relationships with contemporary artists. His quiet, intimate, and radiant compositions engage radically with our sensory experiences of time, sound, and space.

Program
Extensions 1 (1951), for violin and piano
Projection 1 (1950), for cello (performed on violin)
Vertical Thoughts 2 (1963), for violin and piano
Piano Piece (to Philip Guston) (1963), for piano
Spring of Chosroes (1977), for violin and piano

New York Studio School is grateful to Yamaha for its generous donation of a piano for this program.

This event was conceived by NYSS as a tribute to the New York Landmarks Conservancy during their 50th Anniversary celebrations.
