Sharp Objects For String Orchestra by James Matheson String Orchestra - Sheet Music

By James Matheson

Sharp Objects, says Matheson, "explores strong, bracing contrasts. Loud gestures suddenly give way to quiet chords that are sonic artifacts of the louder gestures, sustaining the harmony almost like a piano's damper pedal... [It] features several of the players in short solos, which sound against the background of shimmering string harmonies played by the other players. Eventually, the overall stillness of the piece gains in focus, leading to an energetic, if slightly abrupt, conclusion." Duration: c.5'
