Music reviews of Feldman: Neither
Music Review: opera for those who can't stand opera
Rating: 5 Stars
In an interview, Feldman speaks of how both he and Beckett can't stand opera. This is the result of a crossing of a "note man," as Feldman terms himself, and a word man, Beckett, who are of this frame of mind. Words are barely intelligible here, reminding one of the "unspeakable home" of Beckett's piece. The music is more or less as haunting as music could be, slipping in and out of tempo in absolutely unpredictable fashion. This is a work that makes the listener question music itself, absolutely appropriate as Beckett's works make a reader question literature itself. Feldman is so faithful to the feel of Beckett's text that it seems nothing is happening here as the music moves at a glacial pace for the majority of the opera. As the case is with Beckett's work, you finish the piece and your mind is swimming with possible interpretations.
