As the song goes on, he realises that life without music is quite sad. He luckily manages to retrieve his fiddle, and the song ends with a joyous last verse.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary><em>Why is the song so loved and well known in Norway?<\/em><\/summary>\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">The lyrics are in Nynorsk, one of Norway\u2019s two official written languages. Nynorsk came about in the 19th century, during Norway\u2019s push for independence from Denmark and Sweden. This connection makes the song feel extra Norwegian compared to songs influenced by Danish language and culture. It\u2019s also a favourite among folk dance groups since the melody is so well-known and is written in \u00be time.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary><em>What special meaning does the song have for you?<\/em><\/summary>\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">\u201cPer Spelmann\" is a classic Norwegian children\u2019s song that most Norwegians, including myself, grew up singing with grandparents or at school.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary><em>Tell us something about yourself.

When I started working at the University of Twente, I often heard bells being played on campus. Eventually, I discovered where the sound was coming from, and that it was actually a musical instrument you could take lessons on. Over the past year, I\u2019ve been practising regularly, and I think I\u2019ve found a new hobby. The carillon has a strong tradition here in the Netherlands, and I\u2019ve been surprised to learn that it's an instrument tradition also shared with Norway. This makes the experience feel both new and familiar at the same time.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1340,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1382","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-europa"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
