A State Divided – a Missouri Symphony contributes to the historiography of Missouri through music inspired by the state’s entrance into the Civil War in 1862. The impetus for the Symphony was the 150th anniversary of the event in 2012. This composition continues to expand Harbach’s musical work based on St. Louis and Missouri landmarks including Freedom Suite for String Orchestra, inspired by the Dred and Harriet Scott legal struggle for their freedom, and Harriet’s Story for Soprano, Violin, and Piano, inspired by Harriet Scott and Harriet Tubman.
