Arranged wind dectet/bass.

NB Clarinet parts are for CLARINET in A.

This is my arrangement of No 2

Thanks to Runyon programm notes for the following extract.....
 (https://www.runyanprogramnotes.com)

Grieg first wrote and published the Norwegian Dances as Piano duets in 1881.
There are 4 Dance movements.

The four movements are derived from traditional Norwegian folk tunes contained in a collection published in 1853 by Ludvig Mathias Lindemans, entitled, Mountain Melodies Old and New.

They were not orchestrated by Grieg, but later, in 1888, Hans Sitt, a distinguished Czech violinist, did the honors.   They have become orchestral chestnuts ever since.

Almost everyone has heard the demure, sly and winsome second dance - this one -its ubiquitous.  A brief, but furious halling interrupts for just a few seconds, and then the familiar theme returns.
