Morton Feldman was one of the most distinctive voices in 20th-century avant-garde composition, and New Directions In Music 2 offers a compelling window into his creative development during the early 1950s. Released by Columbia Masterworks in 1959, this album captures a series of works composed between 1951 and 1957, a period during which Feldman was forging his signature approach to sound — marked by quiet, suspended textures and a deeply personal sense of time and space.
Featuring performances by an ensemble of accomplished musicians including David Tudor, Walter Trampler, and Matthew Raimondi, New Directions In Music 2 presents Feldman's evolving musical language across nearly a decade of compositional work. For fans of mid-century classical and experimental music, this is a historically grounded recording that documents an important chapter in American avant-garde music as it was happening.
