Description

Symphony No. 3 (1974/1986) by Gloria Coates is a 27-minute work for string orchestra in six movements.

In the string quartets she wrote during the 1970s, Gloria Coates developed a method of composing using glissando lines in counterpoint which become structures, "somewhat like a builder using wooden boards to build a house" (Gloria Coates). Two of the contrasting movements, Interplay and Mirror , were both composed in 1974 and make use of glissando lines as the primary element in the music.

Symphony No. 3 was first performed at the Heidelberg Festival 1988 by the Swedish Strings Uppsala, conducted by Roland Haraldson.
