FWIW, John Tilbury (of AMM) has also recorded a version of FOR JOHN CAGE, with violinist Darragh Morgan. https://diatriberecords.bandcamp.com/album/morton-feldman-for-john-cage

I am a fan generally but I confess I don't know this piece or these recordings very well. Looks like Hat Hut / ezz-thetics now has this covered: https://ezz-thetics.bandcamp.com/album/for-john-cage. But I've yet to audition it. The first Feldman recording I heard pairs the early Durations with Coptic Light. I still have a soft spot for these renditions. https://www.allmusic.com/album/morton-feldman-durations-i-v-coptic-light-mw0001940584

They were all working-class Catholics. Only Catholicism produces that brand of "Satanism." Also, as far as Christian rock concept LPs from this early 70s go, overlook Aphrodite's Child's 666 at your own peril. https://www.loudersound.com/features/apocalypse-and-orgasm-the-crazy-story-of-aphrodites-child-666-vangeliss-cult-masterpiece

Do you know Don Cherry's COMPLETE COMMUNION? I think that fits this bill. I'd also recommend THE STRAIGHT HORN OF STEVE LACY on Candid, which features Charles Davis on baritone. The Lacy - Charles Tyler date on Silkheart — ONE FELL SWOOP — is not dissimilar. Finally, Frank Lowe's EXOTIC HEARTBREAK. Not a piano-less band, but the piano duties are handled (and then some) by Amina Claudine Myers.

Hate to hear this, but glad to know he'd been getting some wider recognition of his considerable talents in recent years.
