We are in an old-fashioned aristocratic castle. Roselil and her mother are chatting and giggling (about men?). Sir Peder, a smart young man - probably a musician - is listening behind the door. He catches the essence of her undertones and makes a plan: He cannot create 'flowers of gold,' but his music can be converted to gold in the ears of Roselil - and so he wins her heart! At the beginning of my arrangement, Roselil is singing in a pretty folk-song manner, but later on she joins Sir Peder in a driving and brilliant jazz style. (John Hoybye) This piece has been composed for the international renowned Calmus Ensemble and it is suitable for ensembles and ambitious amateur choirs. You can find the song Roselil og hendes moder on the CD recording Folk Songs (Carus 83.034).
