Words?

gnox

As operas go, this is a very strange one. But as pieces by Morton Feldman go, this one is strangely operatic. At times you almost get the sense that something is *happening*, maybe even something dramatic! Most of it though is quite atmospheric in the best Feldman sense. Petra Hoffmann is fine as the only "character" in this "opera" but so far i haven't been able to hear any words at all, let alone words by Samuel Beckett. Which i suppose is the way he would have liked it. Anyway, well worth the download for Feldman fans.
