Descendants of the Vikings, children of Norse legend born beneath the grey twilight of the midnight sun, the people of Norway live in a country of fjords, mountains, lakes and forests, their background here wild and terrible, there still and brooding. Their folk songs and dances are as varied as the scenery of their native land, and as attractive as their colourful national costumes.
In this book four dances are fully described with their music and dance steps; and four fine colour plates portray some of the traditional costumes.
Klara Semb was the recognised authority on the dances of her country, and was largely instrumental in their revival, for she spent forty years travelling Norway collecting and teaching dances.
