Description:
Fanitullen is a lively, beautiful 'Sl?tt', i. e. an old Norwegian melody which is played on a traditional 'Hardingfele' (Hardanger fiddle).
Because of its violent rhythm and exciting character, playing a Fanitullen for a long time was considered improper. It was believed that a person playing this melody would come under the influence of the devil. Therefore, Fanitullen could be regarded as a kind of Rock'n Roll from the 18th century.
Tom Brevik's adaptation is based on a composition for piano by Ole Olsen (1850-1927)
