Listening Through The Dictionary of Composers and Their Music 


Morton Feldman (1926-1987)


Bio

Feldman was born in Queens and was exposed to 20th-century composing ideas at an early age. He was friends with John Cage who introduced him to Cowell, Antheil, and others. He taught at the University of Buffalo and UC San Diego. He was a pioneer of indeterminism and arhythmic notation systems but gravitated back to more precise rhythmic patterns later in his life.
