Description
SKU: A0.940769
Composed by Edvard Grieg. Arranged by Nick Walkley. Children,Contemporary,Patriotic,Standards,World. Score and parts. 45 pages. Nick Walkley #3422303. Published by Nick Walkley (A0.940769).Based on Grieg's famous orchestral movement from 'Peer Gynt Suite no.1', this arrangement is a contemporary twist on an old classic and designed to appeal to young audiences and musicians. It was originally written for Sæbø Skulemusikklag, Norway, for World Brass Day 2017. The performance was recorded as representation of Norwegian culture and uploaded to Youtube in a shared playlist alongside others from around the globe*.
The arrangement begins in a similar creepy manner to the original, tip-toeing in and gradually building up to a frightening frenzy. Something of a surprise is in store for the audience after a familiar opening however; a dubstep/drum n bass twist drops in before the melody rejoins in a new fashion, leading on to solo moments for drum kit and timpani.
Elements of the original orchestration are again infused into the repeated refrain to intensify the music towards a dramatic final close.
Note to conductors:
Difficult solo tuba parts are a feature, but a simplified version is also supplied for less advanced players.
The soprano cornet, 2nd horn and 2nd baritone parts are supplementary and can be omitted without problem.
Beginner level (aspirant) parts are provided, written in B and E flat as 'Trolls' so that newer band members can join in.
*this arrangement has been edited since that performance for publication.
