 | | Finally in February 1871 [the] "Société Nationale de Musique" came into existence in Paris,—and the founders of the Samfundet realizing that a combination of the two interests, namely the preservation and re-editing of historical compositions, and the furtherance of contemporary music would be closest to their purpose, established the bilateral activity of the Samfundet. |
 | | In the Samfundet publications his work is represented by Festen paa Kenilworth (The Feast at Kenilworth), a romantic Singspiel to a text by Hans Christian Andersen (1877), and the Reformations-Kantate for male chorus with piano, to a text by J. Heiberg (1884). |
 | | In the Samfundet series he is represented by several orchestral overtures: to the tragedy of Hakon Jarl (1954), to Yrsa: a heroic poem (1883), to the tragedy of Corregio (1953); a piano arrangement of the Overture and Entr'acte Music to Hakon Jarl(1873); and two ballets, Valyrien (1900) and Thyrmskviden (The Legend of Thyrm) (1891). |
