For Samuel Beckett

South Bank Centre

Written shortly before the composer's death, Morton Feldman's expansive For Samuel Beckett is a meditatively shifting work, in which tiny differences between endless rhythmic and harmonic permutations suspend space and time.

A giant of American minimalism, Feldman's experiments with scale and entropy led him to an obsession with quietly powerful music: this evocative piece seems to appear from nowhere and float on elsewhere after is end. 

The Royal Academy of Music's talented Mason Ensemble will join our players side-by-side on stage to perform this mysterious and beautiful work.
