You know why there are no strings? Because strings are some of the bitchiest people when it comes to temperature. Unionly, they need a place around 20 degrees, they would never play in the environment called for them in this piece. Absolutely never. Unless they were gypsies... Plus, to represent the north, I don't think that lush strings would really work. The north is not pretty like that. It's pretty in its solidarity, its sparceness, and purity.
