== 1980s, 1990s, and the Feel Trio ==
Following Lyons' death in 1986, Taylor formed the Feel Trio in the late 1980s with [[William Parker (musician)|William Parker]] on bass and [[Tony Oxley]] on drums. The group can be heard on ''[[Celebrated Blazons]]'', ''[[Looking (Berlin Version) The Feel Trio]]'' and the 10-disc set ''[[2 Ts for a Lovely T]]''.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.allmusic.com/album/celebrated-blazons-mw0000695744|title=Celebrated Blazons|website=AllMusic|access-date=April 6, 2018}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.allmusic.com/album/looking-berlin-version-the-feel-trio-mw0000910547|title=Looking (Berlin Version) The Feel Trio – The Feel Trio {{!}} Songs, Reviews, Credits |website=AllMusic|access-date=April 6, 2018}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2002/sep/20/jazz.artsfeatures2|title=CD: Cecil Taylor Feel Trio, 2 Ts For A Lovely T|last=Fordham|first=John|date=September 20, 2002|website=The Guardian|language=en|access-date=April 6, 2018}}</ref> Compared to his prior groups with Lyons, the Feel Trio had a more abstract approach, tethered less to jazz tradition and more aligned with the ethos of European [[free improvisation]]. He also performed with larger ensembles and [[big band]] projects.

Taylor's extended residence in [[Berlin]] in 1988 was documented by the German label [[FMP (Free Music Production)|FMP]], resulting in a [[box set]] of performances in duet and trio with a large number of European free improvisors, including Oxley, [[Derek Bailey (guitarist)|Derek Bailey]], [[Evan Parker]], [[Han Bennink]], [[Tristan Honsinger]], [[Louis Moholo]], and [[Paul Lovens]]. Most of his later recordings have been released on European labels, with the exception of ''[[Momentum Space (album)|Momentum Space]]'' (a meeting with [[Dewey Redman]] and [[Elvin Jones]]) on [[Verve Records|Verve]]/Gitanes. The classical label [[Bridge Records|Bridge]] released his 1998 [[Library of Congress]] performance ''Algonquin'', a duet with violinist [[Mat Maneri]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.allmusic.com/album/cecil-taylor-algonquin-mw0000468021|title=Cecil Taylor: Algonquin – Cecil Taylor {{!}} Songs, Reviews, Credits |website=AllMusic|access-date=April 6, 2018}}</ref>

Taylor continued to perform for capacity audiences around the world with live concerts, usually playing his favored instrument, a [[Bösendorfer]] piano featuring nine extra lower-register keys. In 1987, he toured England with Australian pianist [[Roger Woodward]], presenting recitals on which Woodward played solo works by [[Iannis Xenakis|Xenakis]], [[Toru Takemitsu|Takemitsu]], and [[Morton Feldman|Feldman]], followed by Taylor, also playing solo.<ref>{{cite news |last=Gill |first=Dominic |date=November 26, 1987 |title=Woodward, Taylor / Adrian Boult Hall, Birmingham |url=http://www.rogerwoodward.com/images/PDF/Woodward_Taylor_Dominic_Gill.pdf |work=The Financial Times |location=London |access-date=October 22, 2020}}</ref> A [[Documentary film|documentary]] on Taylor, entitled [https://web.archive.org/web/20080924143425/http://www.chrisfelver.com/films/taylor.html ''All the Notes''], was released on [[DVD]] in 2006 by director [[Chris Felver]].
