In the Hall of the Mountain King by Grieg - Marimba

This song starts slowly, but don't judge by that! It gets faster as it progresses. Although the name may be unfamiliar, the tune is very widely recognized.

"In the Hall of the Mountain King" is the final movement of Edvard Grieg's Peer Gynt Suite No.1, Op. 23. While the movement was written in an exaggerated way to parody the type of music Grieg disliked, it ironically became one of his most iconic compositions!

I am a high schooler who really enjoys music. Marimba is not my main instrument, but I hope you enjoy the video! If you do, please give me a thumbs up and check out my channel, Caracophony. Please share it with others if you think it is a worthwhile video, and I would love to hear from you in the comments section! 😉
