Brass Band - Grade 4 SKU: BT.NNS9790261711197 Kantslått (Reinlender). Composed by Øystein Olsen Vadsten. Folk Music. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 2016. Norsk Noteservice #NNS9790261711197. Published by Norsk Noteservice (BT.NNS9790261711197). ”Dancing Trolls” is a sequel to ”The Battle of the Hats”, which was published in 2015. Like ”The Battle of the Hats”, ”Dancing Trolls” is a piece of music based on Norwegian traditional dances. This time around,it´s the reinlender dance which takescentre stage.The music is composed by Øystein Olsen Vadsten who keeps the strong melodic and tempo, which is dear to this kind of dance. Admittedly given a make-over with a more rhythmic accompaniment and more exciting harmonization.Thismakes it a fun piece, both to Listen to and play. The reinlender dance derives from the Rhineland in Germany,and is also known as the German Polka.To the conductor:Because this is a dance form whichis dependent on the right ”swing”,it is of great importance to keep as close to the metronome mark as possible. A steady groove, primarily specified by the drum set, is also essential for a good result. Remember to keep a good balance between the melody carrying instruments and theaccompaniment. Good luck and have fun with this ”crazy” little tune.
