Nalles Favoriter

Eivind Aadland's "Nalles Favoriter" is a delightful orchestral journey through a collection of beloved classical pieces, released on October 1, 2010, under dB Productions. This 47-minute album is a testament to Aadland's versatility and skill, showcasing a diverse range of compositions that span from lively dances to serene pastorals.

The album opens with the energetic "Champagnegalop" and includes well-known works such as Mozart's "Eine kleine Nachtmusik" and Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake."
