Norwegian Dance, op. 35 no. 2 (violin viola duo)

Title: Norwegian Dance, op. 35 no. 2

Composer: Edvard Grieg, arr. David Gable

Instrumentation: Violin and Viola

Printout: 4 pages

Note: Grieg’s original compositions are heavily influenced by Norwegian folk idioms, as exemplified in this charming piece. A highly recognizable tune, creatively harmonized, it is fun to play and hear. In this setting, the opening theme is given to the viola. Another setting, with the primary material in the violin, is also available.

This version is also available in the Bargain Bundle Grieg Collection for Violin and Viola, Set 2.
