Rothko Chapel

Rothko Chapel is a 1971 composition by American composer Morton Feldman, written for the non-denominational Rothko Chapel in Houston. The work is an extended, quiet exploration of sparse sonorities, sustained tones and delicate timbral contrasts for voices and instruments, reflecting Feldman's late-period focus on duration and silence and marking a distinctive point in his oeuvre and in the development of late 20th-century experimental classical music.
