Janson Norwegian Dance - with thanks to Rikard Nordraak - for cornet and string orchestra. 'It goes without saying that my Norwegian Dance is at least as far removed from the origins as all other previous examples with similar titles. But today, when the large part of dance music finds itself in the huge shopping centres while the musical point of gravity of the cultured circles has continued upwards and has settled at the top, in the head, it may be time for new attempts to join everything together again - before our legs turn to dust and our heads to halos' (Alfred Janson).
