For John Cage (1982), scored for violin and piano and running to approximately seventy-five minutes, belongs to the sequence of long, late works in which Morton Feldman finally found the form adequate to his ambitions. The title is literal: a tribute, an homage, a conversation across the entire history of their friendship and artistic exchange. As in Triadic Memories and the later string quartets, material drifts in and out of apprehension, neither developing nor simply repeating, the work's immense duration functioning not as extension but as a different relationship to time altogether. Issued by ALM on 2CD - the Japanese label that documented this music with a rigour and care that matched its demands.
