But there are reasons far more compelling than mere longevity to regard Elliott Carter as the most eminent of living American composers, and as one of the foremost composers in the world at large. His name has come to be synonymous with music that is at once structurally formidable, expressively extraordinary, and virtuosically dazzling: music that asks much of listener and performer INTRODUCTION alike but gives far more in return. Carter was born in New York and, except during the later years of his education, has always lived there. After college and some postgraduate study at Harvard, like many an aspiring American composer of his generation who did not find the training he sought at home, Carter went off to Paris to study with Nadia Boulanger, an experience which, while enabling a necessary development of technique, also lent his work a conservative, neoclassical style for a time.

It is hardly possible to list all the soloists who have mastered his very demanding scores. The connection to the tradition of Chinese-Korean court music is very clear in _Loyang_ for chamber ensemble (1962). Yun’s individual style, which is indeed obliged to Eastern-Asian idioms, emerged in _Gasa_ for violin and piano (1963) and in _Garak_ for flute and piano (1963). In _Gasa_ and _Garak_, he overlaid twelve-tone sound fields with a second, melodically dominated layer of (long sustained) main or central tones. Yun recognized Isang Yun photo © Booseyprints this long sustained tone (or sound), which "is already life itself" and – flexible within itself – contains beats, colorings, dynamic nuances, and also The Dragon from Korea ornaments (accentuated attacks, sub-beats, likewise emphasized decays), as _by Walter-Wolfgang Sparrer an essential characteristic of the East-Asian tradition. _ Isang Yun was the first composer from Eastern Asia to succeed in That he meticulously indicated in his scores the course of every individual establishing an international career based in Germany.

  • “TEMPO E TEMPI” Program Notes for Pieces by Elliott Carter by John Link Esprit Rude/Esprit Doux II
    Concert 5 “TEMPO E TEMPI” Program Notes for pieces by Elliott Carter by John Link Esprit Rude/Esprit Doux II (1994) Carter composed Esprit Rude/Esprit Doux as a 60th birthday present for Pierre Boulez, using a short motto based on Boulez’s name. Ten years later, Carter added this brief companion piece as a 70th birthday present. The first measure of the later piece repeats the final gesture of the earlier one, and the two pieces may be played individually, as a suite, or as a single continuous movement. Esprit Rude/Esprit Doux II adds marimba to the original’s flute and clarinet, and reflects the considerable changes in Carter’s style that took place between 1985 and 1994. The main body of the piece consists of a long-line melody, passed between the flute and clarinet. Unable to participate in the sustained lyricism of the woodwinds, the marimba provides an occasionally vehement accompaniment. Elsewhere, the instruments find common ground in a texture of trills and tremolos that minimizes their differences, but a mood of playful contentiousness nonetheless prevails. Trilogy (1992) Trilogy was composed for Heinz and Ursula Holliger, and consists of short pieces for solo harp (Bariolage), and solo oboe (Inner Song), with a concluding duet for the two instruments together (Immer Neu). Each of the three movements may be played alone as an independent composition, but when played as a suite the instruments make small accompanying gestures during each other’s solo, to particularly striking effect. The word Bariolage originally referred to the mixing of colors but was later adapted to bowed instrument playing to refer to the technique of moving rapidly between different strings to produce changes of tone color.
