The darting speed of thought
2003
Overview
Not all the music fought free of its own mechanisms. There were times, particularly in the Oboe Quartet, when I felt [Elliot Carter] had simply become too fluent. The darting energy, the sudden pauses seemed impelled only by the \"method\", and not by any real musical urgency. The texture took on a fatal greyness, unrelieved by those moments of harmonic translucence that lighten Carter's music at its best.
