Product Description An impressive cast of artists are joining together in this Ondine recording dedicated to the late works by iconic American composer Elliott Carter (19082012). The album includes five premiere recordings, including Carters final work Epigrams (2012) for piano trio, featuring Pierre-Laurent Aimard, Isabelle Faust and Jean-Guihen Queyras. The album also features percussionist Colin Currie joined together with the Birmingham Contemporary Music Group and the BBC Symphony Orchestra conducted by Oliver Knussen. Review Pianist Pierre- Laurent Aimard brings fluent delicacy to the concertos and the orchestral soundings. He is matched in filigree precision by co-protagonists, percussionist Colin Currie, and the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Birmingham Contemporary Music Group under conductor Oliver Knussen. Carter s very last- prove concise, poetic and delightfully mischievous as ever. --BBC Music Magazine, October'17 There's virtuosity aplenty from the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Birmingham Contemporary Music Group under Oliver Knussen, and with the piano trio, Epigrams, Aimard, violinist Isabelle Faust and cellist Jean-Guihen Queyras sign off in impeccable style. --BBC Music Magazine, May'18
