“There is something exquisite about the construction of a common orange,” says American violinist, singer and composer Caroline Shaw (born 1982). One of the most common varieties is the Valencia orange – juicy, sweet, and with a thin peel. “Nature is so simple, and yet so extraordinary.” In her piece Valencia, the image of an orange is evoked through gently undulating overtones and slowly flowing chords and melodies.
