Elliott Carter and friends celebrate his 103rd birthday at 92Y
Did you miss Elliott Carter’s 103rd Birthday Concert at 92nd Street Y earlier this month? Head over to The New York Review of Books Blog to read Charles Rosen’s terrific review, which includes four audio clips from the concert. “Perhaps the flashiest piece on the program,” wrote Rosen, “was Hiyoku, a duet for two clarinets performed with astounding virtuosity by Ayako Oshima and Charles Neidich, which was dazzling and went by like a whirlwind.”
Listen for yourself in the audio player below.
Up next for 92Y Concerts is A Champagne New Year’s Eve with The Knights, on December 31. “Any performance by this vibrant indie orchestra,” wroteThe New York Times, “is cause to celebrate.” Read more and purchase tickets, here.
