The music of Schubert occupied a very special place in the musical imagination of Morton Feldman (external link). Here Mark Knoop pairs Feldman’s last work for solo piano with a late Schubert impromptu. He is then joined by Aisha Orazbayeva to perform music by Bryn Harrison (external link), whose subtly shifting textures extend Feldman’s language into the 21st century.
