4.0 out of 5 stars Carter's sole opera at long, long last, 15 Dec 2003
By Joseph Barron (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Carter wrote this 40-minute one-act opera in 1998, just before he turned 90. It is his one foray onto the stage, though in a sense, he has been writing operas all his life, assigning distinct personalities to the individual instruments in his chamber scores, which he has called "auditory scenarios." Here he does some wonderful things with an absurdist libretto by Paul Griffiths that is at once baffling and obvious. Six characters, gradually reciovering from a car accident, retreat into their own preoccupations rather than doing anything to help one another or rectify their situation. There isn't much conflict, but some of Griffith's observations are thought- provoking, and Carter's vocal writing is richly contrapuntal. The women in the cast make the strongest impressions, esp. contralto Hillary Summers as Stella. As substantial as the opera is, though, the real attraction of the disk is the Asko Concerto, a masterful little chamber symphony that packs a lot of color and drama into its 12-minute length. Some of the instrumental pairings -- violin and trumpet, or piccolo and xyplohone -- are real attention getters, and the studio performance is excellent. I'd never heard the work before, but now I can't get enough of it.
