The Frog (Frøen) for Narrator and Orchestra (2009). Text by Carl Quist Møller.

Commissioned by Aarlborg Symphony Orchestra.

A crazy liar story about the first love, frogs turning into royal Africans and a lobster which is really a submarine.

The Frog is written for children’s concerts for children between five and ten years old.

The narrator reads the story while the orchestra plays in the background.

Occasionally the orchestra plays longer section without narrator; these sections are commenting on the story.The sections without narrator can be performed as a 10 minutes long orchestral work.

The music is a wild, visually evocative, all fun-mixture of modern pop- and dance-music, African folk music and Western European avant-garde music.
