21. 95 FOR EC FROM E# (2007)

Commissioned by the Sospeso Ensemble and Arditti Quartet and performed by them for an event to celebrate the 95th birthday of composer Elliott Carter, This piece is 95 measures in length and begins with an ambiguous tonality defined by the vertical arrangement of E and C, which after various metric modulations, settles into the key of E#, aka F.

This recording is an adaptation of the original score eliminating contrabass and performed by Sirius Quartet.
