Composed by Edvard Grieg. Arranged by David Burndrett. This edition: pdf. Romantic Period. 21 pages. David Burndrett #2013195. Published by David Burndrett (A0.554349).This highly accessible arrangement of In the Hall of the Mountain King by Edvard Grieg has been carefully adapted for Grade 1 standard players and upwards, making it suitable for developing school orchestras while still being effective for more advanced ensembles. The dramatic character and recognisable drive of this orchestral classic are preserved, while the technical demands remain comfortable for early-level string players.
The writing focuses on clear rhythms, manageable note patterns, and supportive ensemble textures. Because of its strong structure and gradual dynamic build, the piece works equally well for Grade 3 players and beyond — even more experienced groups can perform it successfully as a light concert item, outreach piece, or fun encore.
An optional piano part is included to support rehearsals or strengthen performances where needed. As with many of my school editions, an optional Violin 3 part is provided (duplicating the Viola part), ensuring flexibility for ensembles without viola players while maintaining a full harmonic texture.
Ideal for school concerts, first orchestra performances, themed programmes, outreach events, and end-of-term celebrations, this arrangement allows ensembles of mixed ability to perform a famous orchestral favourite with confidence and impact.
