Clarinets in Bb - Other than soprano saxophones , which are highly unlikely to be found in a school orchestra, there are no obvious contenders to join the clarinets on this line. The writing, and the range, will generally be unsuitable for at-pitch Bb instruments such as the trumpet or cornet; and lower Bb instruments such as the euphonium shouldn't use this part as the sound will be muddied by the lower octave.
Bassoons - Cellos can play from this part though in the first instance they should use their dedicated part. Horns in F - This being a demanding instrument, rather rare in the school orchestra, it is generally doubled in the arrangements by the tenor horn in Eb , which has its own stave and part see below. Tenor Horns in Eb and alto saxophones - These play from the same part, which generally doubles the part of the F horn see above.
There is, if required, a part for 2nd Horn in F , which duplicates that of the Tenor Horn. Trombones - The trombone part is available in two notations - bass clef at pitch and treble clef brass band notation.

The former part can also be used by cellos though they have their own dedicated stave too ; the latter by euphoniums and baritones ditto. Euphoniums and Baritones - Any spare trombones may be allotted this stave. A part in bass clef for this line is also provided; it's called '2nd trombone'. Bass in Bb - The part for this instrument is also provided in bass clef, for the orchestral tuba.
A separate part is provided for the smaller Eb bass ; the music is identical in pitch, except for the odd occasion where an upwards octave transposition has been necessary. Percussion - The name for this varies from piece to piece, but it is generally for any kind of large drum. If the part is called 'timpani', then of course those tuned drums should ideally be employed, but any percussive instrument will usually be quite effective.
The percussion parts of all the pieces can be executed by one player, except for the Adams, which has a quick change in the middle; however, in this case, the instrument used at the start can just as well be used right through. Violins - This part could be doubled by flutes or oboes if there are enough of them to go around. Players who aren't comfortable out of 1st position should consider an alternative see below.
Violas - These aren't particularly prevalent in school orchestras, so a special violin part is provided. It's called 2nd violin , and is identical to the viola part except for passages which go below low G — these are either omitted in the special part or transposed upwards. Cellos - Their part can be played by bassoons, though they should in the first instance be placed on their dedicated line.
Double Basses - Any other bass-clef C instrument bassoons , cellos and the like playing from this part will be doubling it an octave higher; this will do no harm at all, and often it would be better to have something on this line than nothing at all. Grieg was a composer who firmly put his country, Norway, on the musical map. Many of his pieces were based on Norwegian fairy stories and melodies, and over years since his death he is still his country's most respected composer.
In the Hall of the Mountain King
Grieg was taught piano by his mother from the age of just 6 and then when he was a teenager, a famous violinist spotted his talent and persuaded his parents to send him to music school in Germany, and so his music career began. In the Hall of the Mountain King comes from undoubtedly his most famous work - Peer Gynt, which was written in as background music to a famous play.
The character of Peer Gynt is even older and has been a Norwegian folk tale for many centuries. Grieg took the best bits of his background music and made an orchestral suite which is very well known and made the Peer Gynt character recognisable around the world. Dovregubben sits on his throne, with crown and sceptre, surrounded by his children and relatives. Peer Gynt stands before him.
There is a tremendous uproar in the hall. Grieg himself wrote "For the Hall of the Mountain King I have written something that so reeks of cowpats , ultra-Norwegianism , and 'to-thyself-be-enough-ness' that I can't bear to hear it, though I hope that the irony will make itself felt. The piece is in the overall key of B minor.
The simple theme begins slowly and quietly in the lowest registers of the orchestra, played first by the cellos , double basses , and bassoons. After being stated, the main theme is then very slightly modified with a few different ascending notes, but transposed up a perfect fifth to the key of F-sharp major , the dominant key, but with flattened sixth and played on different instruments. The two groups of instruments then move in and out of different octaves until they eventually "collide" with each other at the same pitch.

The tempo gradually speeds up to a prestissimo finale, and the music itself becomes increasingly loud and frenetic. The troll-courtiers : Slagt ham! Slagt ham! Slay him! The Christian man's son has seduced the fairest maid of the Mountain King! May I hack him on the fingers?
