Thomas’s authoritative playing shows why Feldman’s keyboard music is some of the most important of the last century.
Morton Feldman wrote for the piano for most of his composing career, and the 46 pieces included in Philip Thomas's collection – the most extensive survey of this music to date, including several works recorded for the first time – provide a thread through its changing emphases and stylistic shifts.
