Morton Feldman - NEITHER by Feldman, fr. 13 aug. 2021, Fra (2021/2021), Dirigent Roland Kluttig, Kollegienkirche, Salzburg, Austria

'to and fro shadow from inner to outer shadow' B: Mr. Feldman, I don’t like opera. F: I don’t blame you! B: I don’t like my words being set to music. F: I’m in complete agreement. In fact it’s very seldom that I’ve used words. I’ve written a lot of pieces with voice, and they’re wordless. B: But what do you want? F: I have no idea! Conversation between Samuel Beckett and Morton Feldman, 1976 Neither to and fro in shadow from inner to outer shadow from impenetrable self to impenetrable unself by way of neither as between two lit refuges whose doors once neared gently close, once away turned from gently part again beckoned back and forth and turned away heedless of the way, intent on the one gleam or the other unheard footfalls only sound till at last halt for good, absent for good from self and other then no sound then gently light unfading on that unheeded neither unspeakable home Samuel Beckett
