Additional info/contents	The piece was commissioned by the Borge Brass Band in 1997. They sent me some folk tunes from Lofoten and I chose two of them. The one presented first goes to the text 'Lord God, thy dear name and honour'. The first half of the melody (in altered form) is played by the brass band from the beginning, while the horn group plays the second part of the melody from letter A. When the fanfare group enters (the beginning), they play the opening motif from the second folk tune. It is presented in its entirety from letter C. It goes to the text 'Jesus, your deep wonders and your painful death'. I have chosen to treat the melodies as 'folk tones' without regard to the text.
