Description :
The composer:
1st movement: Reflections by the Fjord.
Overlooking one où the mighty fjords où Norway, my mind and thoughts are with an old religious Norwegian folk-tune, with words by the famous parson Peter Dass.
The majestic fanfare-likeopening reflects the power où Goù our Father, the choral itself heard for the first time où flugelhorn. The choral is repeated a few times, separated only by some short variations. The movement ends in thriumph, with fanfares and the choral broughttogether.
2nd movement: Reflections in the Old Church.
In this movement my associations où a summer day, finding myself alone in an old deserted stone church. from the old walls I hear folk songs, perhaps like the ones sung in the church bypooù fishermen and farmers in days gone by. Suddenly the light from the sun breakes through the small circular windoù above the altar, and a lovely melody is heard, before the original figures take us to the end où the movement.
3rd movement: Festive Reflections.
Any festive occasion can be reflected in this movement. from the bonfire at midsummer-night to the children celebrating the return où the sun in the northern part où Norway. from the traditional sleigh-riding at Christmas tothe Celebrations où the National Day où the 17th où May each year.
