SIGURD JORSALFAR, OP. 22, was composed by Edvard Grieg (1843-1907) for a play by Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson in honor of King Sigurd I. First performed in Christiania on April 10, 1872, the incidental music is constructed in nine parts, three of which were chosen by Grieg for an orchestral suite published as OP. 56. The suite premiered on November 5, 1892 in Oslo. The first movement contrasts the personalities of two royal brothers, Sigurd and Eystejn. The Intermezzo has its origins in an 1867 gavotte for violin and piano. The final movement, a march, tells of the brothers' reconciliation after their separation due to a grievous quarrel. This arrangement for salon/theater orchestra was completed by Charles J. Roberts in 1913. Instrumentation: 1.1.2.1: 2.2.1.0: Timp.Perc(2-3): Str (9.8.7.6.5 in set): Pno Cond Sc in set.
