about
Lied for String Ensemble (2012) was commissioned by the Oslo Camerata. The title refers to Franz Schubert’s songs, especially “Der Doppelgänger” from
the song cycle Schwanengesang. The song’s ostinatolike chords and the descent of the protagonist into madness provide the starting point for Mikalsen’s
composition. Schubert’s chord progression of B minor-F#-D-F#7, which is modulated through glissandi and ghostly chords, is interposed within the sections of the work that feature fleeting musical fragments and long expanses of sound extending throughout the ensemble.
