Active and acute in his nineties, Elliott Carter has maintained his position as the leading American modernist, and his creative powers are undiminished. The fifth volume in Bridge's series brings together seven intimate miniatures and two substantial works. The Oboe Quartet is as fluid and rhythmically varied as any of the String Quartets, and the oboe's athletic part strongly recalls Carter's Sonata for flute, oboe, cello, and harpsichord, perhaps pointedly. Carter's inclination to reminisce should not be overlooked as an important aspect of his late works. Of Challenge and of Love, a song cycle for soprano and piano, is a major accomplishment, the composer's first foray in this medium since his Three Poems of Robert Frost. The full range of Carter's expression is employed in these five songs, though Quatrains From Harp Lake is the most effective and moving. The remaining pieces are short but not slight, and each shows Carter's care with small forms. Perhaps most significant of these are the Two Diversions, in which Carter's language is simplified in a manageable form for young pianists. Their transparency may serve newcomers as a good place to start with this composer. Excellent performances from Speculum, Tony Arnold, and Charles Rosen, among others, make this album stimulating and enjoyable. ~ Blair Sanderson, All Music Guide

Newband emerged from the avant-garde of the 1970s and its daring explorations have helped fuel a movement devoted to new sonic possibilities. Microtonal works are a central part of the band's repertoire and each of the pieces on this CD represents aspects of several unconventional tuning systems. Harry Partch's haunting Daphne of the Dunes employs a plethora of invented instruments, most of them built by the composer. To achieve his extraordinary timbral palette, Partch used scales based on just intonation. The variation of pitches opens up a fantastic array of intervals, making even-tempered scales seem bland in comparison. James Pugliese's Freeze derives its sliding alto flute tones and heterophony from Native American singing, though without attempting to directly mimic that style. Dean Drummond's Different Drums for Different Strokes explores contrasts between electronic and acoustic drums, and the merging of sonorities extends the percussion's coloristic range in fascinating ways. Mathew Rosenblum's eclectic Circadian Rhythms crosses over tonal and stylistic boundaries to a precarious middle ground, where convention and the unorthodox uneasily coexist. The vibraphone-like Zoomoozophone is featured in Thelonious Monk's 'Round Midnight, though it is miked too closely, resulting in an unpleasant clanging blur. Otherwise, the disc's sound quality is superb. ~ Blair Sanderson, All Music Guide
