Symphony No. 4
for String orchestra
Larsen approached this work asking 'Does the symphony orchestra reflect the culture of sound around us? What is the melody of American English? And can it be best expressed through orchestral strings?'.
Her resultant String Symphony is both a celebration of orchestral strings and a search for their melody as it comes through our language. Most of all, it is a way to express beauty.
