The String Quartet No. 1 by American composer Elliott Carter is a work for string quartet written during a year spent in the Sonoran Desert near Tucson, Arizona from 1950–51. To some extent, it can be said that this was his first major breakthrough work as a composer. The piece was premiered on 26 February 1953 at Columbia University, performed by the Walden Quartet of the University of Illinois.

| - Elliott Carter a écrit cinq quatuors à cordes. Il existe deux autres quatuors de jeunesse, datant de 1935 et de 1937, que Carter a désavoués par la suite. (fr)
- Elliott Carter componeerde zijn Strijkkwartet nr. 1 in de woestijn van Arizona gedurende de jaren 1950 en 51. Carter had het een aantal jaren eerder opgegeven, dat hij goed in het gehoor liggende muziek moest componeren. Met dit strijkkwartet zette hij op papier zoals hij zijn composities voortaan wilde schrijven, ongeacht of ze makkelijk te spelen of te beluisteren waren. Het enige wat nog aan zijn klassieke periode doet denken is de indeling. (nl)

- The String Quartet No. 1 by American composer Elliott Carter is a work for string quartet written during a year spent in the Sonoran Desert near Tucson, Arizona from 1950–51. To some extent, it can be said that this was his first major breakthrough work as a composer. The piece was premiered on 26 February 1953 at Columbia University, performed by the Walden Quartet of the University of Illinois. A primary compositional technique used in the quartet is the principle of metric modulation (temporal modulation)—one for which Carter was to become particularly renowned. Although he was not the first composer to use this device (such as Stravinsky's Symphonies of Wind Instruments, (1920)) he was seemingly the first to develop such complex transformations. It is said that Carter assigned to tempo the structural role that earlier composers gave to tonality. (en)
