Or, as we say down in West Virginia, “maseltov.” On February 1, our friends at Bridge Records will release its Elliott Carter, Vol. 8, a two disc set that focuses on Carter’s most recent work. The works to be released include solo, chamber, vocal and orchestral music, all premiere recordings. Bridge’s Elliott Carter Edition is the largest ongoing recording project devoted to the music of Elliott Carter.
