Pettersson's Symphony No. 15 is characterized by a high degree of tension right from the striking opening: brief, emphatic chords from horns and trombones above the tremolo of a side drum. Completed in 1978, it is in one movement, but with clearly defined sections. Only later did it become known that Pettersson had also been working on a Viola Concerto - a work that, if not fully completed, was so far advanced that it has been accepted as part of his oeuvre.
