Babbitt - The Old Order Changeth (1998) (with score)

The title of Milton Babbitt's late piano piece comes from Alfred Lord Tennyson's Morte d'Arthur:
"The old order changeth, yielding place to new,
And God fulfils Himself in many ways,
Lest one good custom should corrupt the world.
Comfort thyself: what comfort is in me?
I have lived my life, and that which I have done
May He within himself make pure! . . ."
Piano: Ursula Oppens

Exciting piece , and brilliantly played by Oppens. The score is more ‘ legible’ than some other ones by Babbitt where accidentals are repeated through tied notes which gives a congested appearance !

and in the end, really is just music on the surface

Elégant, habile charmant. Ursula Oppens est parfaite. Une agréable monotonie dans le discours, peut-être trop ?
