Feldman & Beckett: Words & Music

55 Norfolk Street, Sheffield, S1 1DA

Description

Visionary titans in their respective artforms, the warm friendship of Morton Feldman and Samuel Beckett resulted in some of the most extraordinary collaborative artworks of the 20th century.

‘Samuel Beckett, Words and Music’ is among their finest collaborative work: Feldman’s singular, sparsely repetitive music matching Beckett’s distilled and fragmentary text. Originally written as a radio play, it presents a cryptic trialogue between the ailing master Croak and his two servants, Words (played by an actor) and Music (represented by Feldman’s score for chamber ensemble).

This evening dedicated to Feldman and Beckett’s works is directed by Vicky Featherstone (Artistic Director, Royal Court Theatre 2013-2023 and Founding Artistic Director, National Theatre of Scotland 2006-2013).
