Abstract
For many conductors, Dag Wirén’s Serenade for String Orchestra lurks on the fringes of the standard orchestral repertoire. Despite its irresistible melodic charms, neoclassic forthrightness, and accessibility for many high school ensembles, the piece does not enjoy the popularity of more timeworn works in the genre. For those seeking a substantial, well-crafted composition not tarnished by overexposure, it offers tremendous technical and expressive opportunities for student musicians.
