In the Hall of the Mountain King (tango remix) – Intermediate Piano Solo
$4.75
Description
This famous classical piece was composed by Edvard Grieg as
part of the play “Peer Gynt,” and is played as the title character, Peer Gynt,
in a dream-like fantasy, enters the troll Mountain King’s hall to face a great
crowd of troll courtiers, gnomes, and goblins. The Mountain King sits on his
throne, with crown and sceptre, surrounded by his children and relatives. Peer
Gynt stands before him. There is a tremendous uproar in the hall and these
lyrics are heard:
Slay him! The Christian man’s son has seduced
the fairest maid of the Mountain King!
Slay him! Slay him!
May I hack him on the fingers?
May I tug him by the hair?
Hu, hey, let me bite him in the haunches!
Shall he be boiled into broth and bree to me
Shall he roast on a spit or be browned in a stewpan?
Ice to your blood, friends!
This arrangement for piano solo presents the theme of
Grieg’s piece in a tango setting that is creative, fun, and much more
accessible to the intermediate pianist. 5 pages. Performance time:
approximately 1:48.
