String Quartet no. 2

Album by Morton Feldman & FLUX Quartet

String Quartet No. 2 is a composition by American composer Morton Feldman, written in 1983. The piece is very long and quiet, relying on sparse, fragile sonorities and an emphasis on duration and timbral nuance, and it comes from Feldman's late period when he concentrated on extended time and delicate texture.
