What is Peer Gynt?

[WROrchestra]

@Joepphisme Peer Gynt is a musical story. Not sure of the full plot but it's in 2 parts I think (the 2 suites) and based on a Scandinavian legend/saga.

isnt anitra's dance the third movement?

[WROrchestra]

Suite No. 1, Op. 46 I - Morning Mood II - Aase's Death III - Anitra's Dance IV - In the Hall of the Mountain King Suite No. 2, Op. 55 I - The Abduction of the Bride. Ingrid's Lament) II - Arabian Dance III - Peer Gynt's Homecoming (Stormy Evening on the Sea) IV - Solveig's Song For some reason, the complete Peer Gynt Suite that I have at home lists Aase's death as part of Suite No. 2!

[WROrchestra]

Probably because it is!

Anitra's sexy

[John1Can]

I appreciate the tasteful voicing of this interesting and provocative piece. Synthesized music can STILL be wonderful, as you so capably illustrate here!

@WROrchestra Rather based on a play by Ibsen (correct me if I'm wrong)

[loonylovegood107]

This song is so majestic! I can imagine Anitra dancing! We're playing this song in Symphonic Band in Middle School!

ohhh sooo nostalgic. we had this play in 5th grade and I played Solveig!! Remeber being too scared to kiss the boy in my class who played the lead Peer Gynt so we ended up just hugging ;P

[hasnaa1997]

@frozenirony no its the second movement :)

[selkie319]

@WROrchestra the music was composed as incidental music for the Ibsen play of the same name. You can read the synopsis of the play at Theatre History dot com

@Joepphisme Peer gynt is a dramatic poem written by the norway writer Henrik Ibsen. Anitra is an arabic woman who is seduced by Peer Gynt but she rejects him.

@CUBETechie And in Ren's toothache where he is pulling those things out of his mouth with a tweezer.

[steampunkstan]

@princesscharmer I haven't seen it, but according to the reviews, the 'Chucky' films may be what you are refering to.

[TheQUIRKYGROOVEYDAME]

This sounds like a synthesizer.

[Bearram1]

It is nice... but I still like Charlie Norman's version better :)

@Animallover30000 - You know *believe it or not*, we don't care that you prodigy elementary whatever orchestra thinks it's easy. You're just being obnoxious.
