Elliott Carter

[some guy]

And Elliott Carter was born on December 11, 1908. Since he's still very much alive, he'll be celebrating his birthday, too.

(Hector Berlioz was also bor)n on December 11. In 1803. I was in his birth town, La Côte-Saint-André, in 2003. In his birth room in his parent's house, actually. That was good times.)

Well then, a very happy 100th birthday to Mr. Carter! That's impressive, and to have such a lengthy career in composition- wow. All composers should be so lucky.

Well now, should I start a new thread for Mieczyslaw Karlowicz (b. December 11, 1876,) or what?

We really should have a composer birthday thread or something...

Happy birthday Eliot Carter.
