Northern Passages 2025
This four-movement work portrays the Norwegian landscape through traditional dance music.
The first movement paints a picture of fjords and mountains, whilst the second is a playful mazurka inspired by the musical 'Smatroll' of Johan Halvorsen and Edvard Grieg. The Hardanger fiddle is the inspiration to the third movement, 'Bansull', with the fourth a traditional song from the Norwegian dance hall.
