Niels Wilhelm Gade (1817-1890) was a major figure in nineteenth century Danish music, having important and influential positions as a composer, conductor, organist, violinist, teacher, and administrator. He furthered the careers of many important musicians, among them Carl Nielsen, who he taught at the Copenhagen Academy of Music.
Gade's "Fantasistykker (Fantasy Pieces) for Clarinet and Piano" was composed in 1864. Three of the four pieces were written in typical mid-romantic style; however, the third piece, and the only one with a title, Ballade, was influenced by Nordic folklore. "Fantasistykker" was one of Gade's most popular works during his lifetime. It was originally intended for either clarinet or violin. This edition, edited by John Anderson, includes the solo clarinet and piano parts. Approximate duration 12:55 (2:11, 2:18, 5:11, 3:15)
- 1. Andantino con moto
- 2. Allegro vivace
