Sigh R Tilia

Sigh, R. Tilia!

"Sigh, R. Tilia!" is a piece for string quartet. It was written in 2014 for the ensemble Stenhammar Quartet.

The title relates to the tree tilia cordata, or little-leaf linden. The inspiration was the memories of this type of tree and also pictures of light micrograph of a transverse section of the tree. The title came up when I played with the words and letters in the more formal scientific term for a transverse section of a little-leaf linden: Xylem Ray Tilia (Sigh, R. Tilia!).

'Sigh, R. Tilia!' is a part of my flower serie ”Flora". Other pieces in that serie are LoveendL, Aq-V-le, Myosotis & Euphorbia.
