When I was in high school back in the early 70’s, I became an aficionado of serious music. I remember discovering Carter through a Nonesuch LP which had the Cello Sonata with Paul Jacobs on piano and Joel Krosnick on cello. This was on the flip side to the Harpsichord quartet. I was blown away then as I was still “cutting my teeth” on the Mozart flute quartets, Haydn and Beethoven chamber music pieces, etc. So this Carter stuff was a real revelation to me. I remember another LP of the Ives Holiday Symphony, too. This Johansen/Stanislavky performance was very enjoyable. Perfectly balanced, subdued yet seething. If some cannot find the pleasure in Carter’s music, it is not for the feint of heart. They need to listen to it a number of times to appreciate the intricate interplay and layering of rhythms/melodies. Carter is an amazing composer!

The first long flowing melody in the first movement is one of the highlights of any artistic expression ever, in any medium, from any time. Thanks to Carter for revealing his ideas to all of us. And the brilliant performance? double stops never sounded so right!

@@alexfetchina9416 i have committed to Carter as one of the greatest composers ever. It is so very heartening to see EC embraced by a wider number of listeners. And the embrace taking the form of not just inclusion but sincere recognition as a full flight master. Ives imo suffers from his publishing history or lack thereof from possibly overworking in hinfsight his compositions which become a hodgepodge of tendencies and gestures sometimes overshadowing his own inspiration. Carter coming up the way he did and much more confident in his methodology (perhaps owing to Ives!) left his early works untampered with and for better or worse left us a complete audit trail. In any event and this is just my opinion, EC is a far superior composer. This early Carter composition is apropos of the Ives discussion as there are strong resonances with Ives and the American tradition. However this not the case wrt to the earler String quartet and 1 and the harpsichord quartet which follows a little and where all influences going back some 250 years are completely subsumed and sublimated into a style that would preoccupy EC for some 50+ years. Not to dis Ives but i cannot think of one work in any genre that is a true masterpiece.

I wonder if this piece was intended to be a dialogue between "expressionist" styles of compositions and more rigorous ones such as serialism, sort of a meta-commentary on the state of composition at the time.

do you know what genre this piece is considered? i've had to listen to and analyze like 25 of these over the course of 2 years for a music theory class, and i absolutely cannot stand whatever this is EDIT: with that said though, I forgot this is on Dane Johnson's channel and I should make it abundantly clear the PERFORMANCE of the piece was incredible from both the cellist and pianist. I simply do not like the piece itself
