Nattasangen fra Karsten og Petra

This lullabye comes from the children’s film Karsten and Petra Become Best Friends, based on Tor Åge Bringsværd’s popular children’s book. This arrangement gives young musicians the opportunity to perform a piece with a little more rhythmic independance than the usual homophonic beginner pieces. The A-part moves mostly in eighthnotes and quarternotes while the inner parts move mostly in quarternotes and halfnotes. The slow tempo of the piece gives young musicians plenty of time to listen to the ensemble and interpret their part.
