Program NotesDuo reflects a brief period when I was influenced by the first two string quartets of Elliott Carter, though my piece is less complex rhythmically and contrapuntally. Like Carter in his second quartet, I thought of the instruments as characters in a sort of dialogue, sometimes arguing with each other, sometimes ignoring each other, sometimes going off on their own (each has a cadenza), and finally reconciling in the slow coda.
