Trinity College

Trinity College’s Austin Arts Center and Department of Music present Triadic Memories: Amy Williams Performs Morton Feldman on Monday, November 16, at 7:30 PM in the Trinity Chapel. Tickets for Triadic Memories are free and open to the public, though advance reservations are strongly encouraged.

In this evening exploring ‘new music’—bridging Western classical music with experimental, global, and electronic elements—Williams honors and celebrates Morton Feldman at 100. She selected Triadic Memories as a representation of Feldman’s minimalist approach to new music, described as the “biggest butterfly in captivity.” His piece evolves through repetitions and slight changes in patterns and chords that captivate the audience. Williams grew up as a mentee of Feldman, a major figure in mid-20th-century classical music. Throughout his career, he explored minimalism alongside classical music and ambient influences, incorporating silence and sounds of the world to give audiences a deeply meditative sonic experience.
