Tomorrow night, the NY Phil, under David Robertson, premiers Elliott Carter's new work Two Controversies and a Conversation. Here's a video of Mr. Carter talking about Two Controversies. Wish I could be there, hope I get to hear the piece at some point. (Robertson brings Carter's Variations for Orchestra to SFS next season, yay!)
And the other day, Bloomberg published a nice interview with Mr. Carter. Congrats on the Legion of Honor!
"Congrats on the Legion of Honor!"
ReplyDeleteYeah, now he's right up there with Jerry Lewis.
