One of his earlier pieces: sounds like the prosaically titled "Piece for Four Pianos". Or, one of several other works he wrote around the same time for two or more pianos. His later stuff (1970 onward) gives you something more to latch onto. But in that case, you're kinda meant to appreciate each sound for its own intrinsic merits. Yeah, that's Feldman!

All I remember is that the performers sat at pianos and occasionally played a note; then, at some indefinable time after that, they'd play another note, that was either very far or not so far from the note that they'd played before. The programs may still be at my parents place in Newcastle. I really can't remember, I took a look at a list of works on the net and no names leaped out at me.

The thing about his music is that there's nothing about it to be "understood", so if you come in trying to follow its structure or direction, well, it ain't there, so you're gonna get flummoxed. It's all about going with the flow. Okay, okay, I'll finish the damn Feldman article already.

I'm still waiting to read the Morton Feldman post. I heard some Feldman pieces a few years ago at a Sydney music festival and was intrigued; couldn't understand a note (and quickly became bored out of my brain) but still intrigued.
