Elliott Carter: Quintets and Voices
£ 23.63
Collection of works by composer Elliott Carter, brought together to celebrate his 95th birthday. Performed by artists with a long-standing relationship with Carter, the recordings feature two of his quintets, along with two works for voice and ensemble and two miniatures. 'Fragment II' (1999), was performed by the Arditti Quartet as was the 1997 recording of 'Quintet for Piano and Strings' which features pianist Ursula Oppens. Jeffrey Milarsky conducts 'Syringa' (1978), with performances from soprano Lucy Shelton, baritone Andre Solomon-Glover and the Ensemble Sospeso. The 1998 recording of 'Tempo e Tempi' is also performed by the Ensemble Sospeso with Shelton and is conducted by Stefan Asbury. Ursula Oppens plays the solo for 'Retrouvailles' (2000), and is accompanied by Steve Taylor, Charles Niedich, William Purvis and Frank Morelli in 'Quintet for Piano and Winds', recorded in 1991.
