- Deck the Hall of the Mountain King
Product description
This totally unique (and somewhat crazy!) selection by Richard Meyer will be the hit of your holiday concert! Your audience will be delighted when they hear what happens when the festive Welsh carol "Deck the Halls" is combined with the dark and mysterious "Hall of the Mountain King" from Grieg's Peer Gynt Suite. Many key playing skills---including accidentals, tempo changes, and important balance issues---are reinforced throughout. Sleigh bells and crash cymbals add just the right amount of color to this fun, good-natured seasonal gem.
Edvard Grieg (1843-1907) was a Norwegian composer. His work mainly reflects the romantic love of Norwegian nature and inspiration from Norwegian folk music. Although he has not created any extensive work (opera or symphony), his work represents an exceptional contribution in the field of small lyrical compositions of solo and chamber music.
