I Skovens dybe, stille ro
I skovens is a fairly straightforward harmonization of a well-known Danish folk song, the text is about the quietness of a large forest, and to emphasize this, each verse is supposed to be played a little slower than the previous. There is also an 8 cello version.


The Finale music notation program simulations (that are used for most of the excerpts), are far from perfect. I could have used recordings from an actual performance, but the simulations provide a neutral interpretation, and together with the score, they give a fairly relevant picture of the music in question.
