An analysis (from Guy Capuzzo's 1999 dissertation) of Elliott Carter'sScrivo in Ventofor solo flute serves as a point of departure for the consideration of certain properties of all-interval tetrachords (AITs). First, the roles of the individual (and a priori distinct) dyads are examined in light of the complement-union pair property exhibited by AITs. Second, a systematic means of describing common-tone relationships among AITs is proposed and studied. Examples from two works by Carter (Shard andScrivo in Vento) show the flexibility and usefulness of the system
