Folkloric Pastiche for Wind Band. Composed by Torstein Aagaard-Nilsen. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 2019. Norsk Noteservice #NNS9790261715348. Published by Norsk Noteservice (BT.NNS9790261715348).Grim was commissioned by Sandviken Ungdomskorps in 1998.
Grim is a folkloristic pastiche, but also with a jazz-flavoured inspiration. The piece ends with the folk-music played on top of a theme from a march: "Sandvikguttenes marsj" to salute the band that commissioned the music.
The title is taken from the word "grimen", a kind of troll that lives in water. He teaches fiddlers how to play if they offer him food a Thursday night in a north-faced waterfall.
