American Sublime, a week-long festival devoted to the music of Morton Feldman, kicked off in Philadelphia last night with a performance of Feldman's mesmerizing 1981 piano composition Triadic Memories at Rodeph Shalom synagogue. This event has served as an opportunity for me to familiarize myself with Feldman's work, which I previously barely knew. Check out my blog post on the festival's website, in which I talk about Feldman's unorthodox approach to musical minimalism.
