Biographical history
Born in Drammen, Norway, Johan Halvorsen was a violinist, conductor and composer who continued the nationalist Norwegian traditions established by Grieg, serving for 30 years as conductor of the Christiania National Theatre. He received his musical education in Kristiania Stockholm. Popular repertoire include Halvorsen’s Danses norvégiennes, for violin and orchestra, and his Entry March of the Boyars. Less often heard are his three symphonies and his two rhapsodies on Norwegian folk-tunes. He composed arrangements of a Sarabande and a Passacaglia by Handel for violin and viola.
