Så seile vi på Mjøsa Orlog-Prøysen / Arr. Haakon Esplo

Serie / Series: Concert Band Entertainment

This song Så seile vi på Mjøsa is beloved and well known for all Norwegians. The text by Alf Prøysen reflects his belonging to his county, Hedmark, and the lake Mjøsa. Ulf Peder Olrog may not be as familiar. The Swedish singer and composer has written the music for several of Prøysens most famous tunes. They started collaboration in the early 50th. Prøysen published in 1953 the booklet "Tingeltangel in the night" with 8 of Olrog songs in Norwegian.

In this arrangement the song is jazzed up and there is possibility of solo parts for several instruments. It will fit well as an entertainment piece for any concert.

[NO]Få viser er så folkekjære som Så seile vi på Mjøsa. Teksten av Alf Prøysen speiler hans tilknytning til Hedmarken og Mjøsa som han vokste opp ved på Rudshøgda. Ulf Peder Olrog er kanskje ikke like kjent for alle. Den svenske visesangeren og komponisten har skrevet melodien til flere av Prøysens mest kjente viser. De startet samarbeid tidlig på 50-tallet og Prøysen ga i 1953 ut viseheftet Tingeltangel i natt med 8 av Olrogs sanger i norsk drakt.

I dette arrangementet er låta jazzet opp og det er mulighet for solopartier for flere instrumenter. Det vil passe godt som underholdningsstykke på enhver konsert.
