• Morton Feldman: Violin and Orchestra

Carolin Widmanns widely acclaimed ECM recordings have traversed a broad arc of music from Schubert to Xenakis. <br>Here she turns her attention to one of the pivotal compositions of Morton Feldman. <br><br>Violin and Orchestra, composed in 1979, marked a new direction, with an almost painterly attention to detail in slowly unfolding music. It is not a concerto in the strict sense of the term, not soloist with orchestral support. The violinist must move inside the glowing colour-field of sound. <br><br>In this landmark Feldman recording, Widmann does so with great delicacy and feeling, exploring the subtle orchestral texture, crafted together with conductor Emilio Pomarico and the players of the Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra.
