Oorspronklik

Symphony No. 4 composed by Einar Englund. 1916-1999. For string orchestra. Score. Published by Fennica Gehrman. FG.042-06882-3. ISBN 979-0-042-06882-3. Although the general dedication "to the memory of a great artist" does not mention any particular figure by name, the fourth symphony is known to have been motivated by the news of Shostakovich's death and his influence is clearly to be heard. The work opens in a style reminiscent of an Italianate baroque suite. Tolling of bells and clicking of col legno strings during the second movement. Tempus fugit. reminds us of the brevity of existence, while the "nostalgia" of the work's title characterises the third movement. The dualistic last movement starts in airy mood but is overtaken by a dark and reflective epilogue.

Simfonie No. 4 saamgestel deur Einar Englund. 1916-1999. Vir strykorkes. Telling. Gepubliseer deur Fennica Gehrman. FG.042-06882-3. ISBN 979-0-042-06882-3. Hoewel die algemene toewyding "aan die nagedagtenis van 'n groot kunstenaar" noem nie enige spesifieke figuur by die naam, is die vierde simfonie bekend dat gemotiveer is deur die nuus van Shostakovich se dood en sy invloed is duidelik te hoor nie. Die werk maak in 'n styl wat herinner aan 'n Italianisant barok suite. Klokke beier en klik van Kol legno snare gedurende die tweede beweging. Tempus fugit. herinner ons aan die bondigheid van die bestaan, terwyl die "nostalgie" van die werk se titel kenmerkend van die derde beweging. Die dualistiese laaste beweging begin in ligte luim maar oorval deur 'n donker en reflektiewe epiloog.
