Arnesen, Kim André - Reflection (from The Stranger) (for string orchestra)

Reflection is an instrumental movement from Kim André Arnesen’s large-scale work 'The Stranger'. Arnesen was inspired by research showing the emotional effect of having eye contact with a stranger for only a few minutes. Studies have shown that this can develop deeper trust and empathy for each other. The idea was to have the audience facing each other to make eye contact during the performance. Full score and parts for string orchestra are included.
