Story behind the song
This work is an Adagio for string orchestra dedicated to Gustav Mahler. This work tries to recreate, in some way, the emotions carried by the slow movements of Mahler’s symphonies. The different sonorities and atmospheres recreated by the orchestra are achieved by a diverse orchestration, with a lot of divisi in the various sections of the string orchestra. The main theme appears along the work, sometimes melodic and harmonically altered, in a way of connecting to the other themes presented.
