The Norwegian Tellefsen was a student and close friend of Chopin and
spent his entire adult life in Paris where he was also highly
sought-out as a teacher and performer. His piano works are not pale
imitations of Chopin
Norwegian dance types are alluded to in the
earliest of his collections of mazurkas and, as the title would lead
you to expect, in Walhallafesten. The other salon pieces included here
are fine examples of their type from the period and even the sonata
(1848) has much more of the dance and the salon about it than the
sonatas of the German romantics.
