Genesis of his 6th String Quartet

Carter on Carter

The first film in a new series of interviews with Elliott Carter(New York, 1908 - New York, 2012) charts his early years in New York, at Harvard University and studying with Nadia Boulanger in Paris. Filmed at his Manhattan apartment in June 2010 the interview is combined with music including Holiday Overture, Symphony No.1 and String Quartet No.1.

The second, filmed at his Manhattan apartment in 2010, focuses on two major scores, the Symphony of Three Orchestras and his opera What Next?

The third and final film, filmed at his Manhattan apartment in 2010, explores his creative motivations as a composer. The 102-year-old composer reflects on setting the words of poets and remembers student days with Gustav Holst.
