  • This retrospective disc presents music composed by the late Elliott Carter over a period of more than 70 year!s
  • The studio recording of Carter's brilliant concerto was never made before
  • The release of this radio recording, featuring the superb Basel Sinfonietta, conducted by Joel Smirnoff, was one of Rosen's last wishes
  • The orchestral songs “Voyage” and “Warble for Lilac Time,” thrillingly performed by Tony Arnold and the Colorado College Festival Orchestra led by Scott Woo
  • Elliott Cook Carter, composer who was twice awarded the Pulitzer Prize
Unquestionably, the major work presented here is the late Charles Rosen's performance of Carter's Piano Concerto. Rosen, a great advocate of Carter's music, had recorded most of Carter's solo piano music over the course of his long career.
