About
In Three Voices everything focuses on the singer, and the music Morton Feldman gives her to sing is as unremittingly demanding as anything in his instrumental writing.
As the voice twists and turns, rises and falls, folding on itself in complicated repetitions and variations, we are conscious both of the intricacy of the pattern-making and the physical demands it is making. Christopher Fox

26th March 2017
Fraser has made a sensitive realisation of this late Feldman opus...Overdubbing herself twice over, she becomes a singular trio, and her hypnotic recurrences fill 52 minutes with an austerity that can seem sublime if you don’t find it too perverse.
12th April 2017
Fraser’s mesmerising performance, wonderfully controlled and paced, realises perfectly. Like so many of Feldman’s scores, Three Voices has a unique, lingering beauty.
