Daniel Lippel- Shard by Elliott Carter

Check my videos for a recent stronger performance that was just posted.

This short virtuoso piece by Carter was written in 1997, and subsequently incorporated into a larger sextet, "Luimen". This performance was recorded live at the Ft. Worth Modern Art Museum on the Ft. Worth Guitar Guild Festival in August 2007. It is also available in a studio version on the New Focus Recordings release, "Resonance" from 2004. Shard was incorporated into a larger ensemble piece by Carter, Luimen. Carter's longer major piece involving guitar is Changes, written for David Starobin.

Do you have tabs for this? ;)

Seriously, amazing playing!

[Dirchekc]

yeah this song is hard to play. There's also a chord I can't seem to finger as it seems actually impossible unless I'm supposed to bend in ways I wasn't aware of.

That was pretty fuckin hot shit, man. Very crisp and clean. I could sense the pulse, even. Nice showpersonship - present but non-distracting. And, last but never least, great recording fidelity.

Obviously I hadn't looked "everywhere". I never would have expected to find it through Hal Leonard. Thanks!

[jojomellon]

I've tried. I can't find the score anywhere. Did it just become available within the past month? If you have a link or a phone number please let me know.
