Film: A Labyrinth of Time
A documentary about Elliott Carter
A reflective documentary film on Elliott Carter’s life and music, including contributions from Pierre Boulez, Daniel Barenboim and Charles Rosen among others.
A lifelong citizen of New York, Carter has long used American innovation for his inspiration whilst still being firmly rooted in the European tradition. Filmed over 25 years by director Frank Scheffer, the film is a paean to 20th-century Modernism and a great composer, whose work and inspiration is as prolific as ever.
