Svends Danska Polska
For: Violin, Clarinet in Bb & Piano
This version of Svends Danska Polska is based on Svends manuscript for violin & piano and then transcribed from the LP “Musik i Kyrkan", Svend Asmussen (violin), Putte Wickmann (clarinet) & Ivan Renliden (piano) 1975.
There is a fine video on Norwegian TV of the trio performing Svend's Danska Polska. Here Svend really demonstrates how showmanship and music-mastery can be combined. Find the video here: LINK - find episode 7 and you hear "Alt under Himmelens fäste" & Svend's Danska Polska.
(Svend points out that "Svend's" in Sweden is misunderstood as "Svensk" (sweedish) - as "Sweedish-danish Polska" - so the name must be pronounced "Svend-pop-sss").
