By the Fjord. Composed by Ketil Bjørnstad. Arranged by Haakon Esplo. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 2016. Norsk Noteservice #NNS9790261710428. Published by Norsk Noteservice (BT.NNS9790261710428).”By the Fjord” is written by the Norwegian composer Kjetil Bjørnstad and is the most famous song from the musical work "Leve Patagonia" which was published in 1978. The work is written as a modern suite about the Oslo Bohemians Hans Jaeger and OdaLasson sitting in a pram on the fjord a summer night. Odas sister sees the couple on the sea from her window and tells us the story.
Kjetil Bjørnstad wrote “By the Fjord” in his house outside Tvedestrand early spring 1978. He was initially notfully satisfied and considered disposing it. The beautiful music has luckily made the song a classic in Norwegian music.
To the conductor
This arrangement can be used with both vocal andinstrumental soloist. Its always a challenge toarrange songs with many verses that tells a story if it is to be played by an instrumental soloist instead of a singer. Because of that, please cut the repeats if it’s performed without lyrics.
Solo-parts included in the set: Vocal Flugelhorn Euphonium - Trombone.
