Visit Norway July 2007 by Kari Gröhn karigrohncom Carl Nielsen (1865-1931) Serenata in vano, Lahti Chamber Ensemble, Osmo Vänskä

Serenata in vano, a quintet for clarinet, bassoon, horn, cello and double-bass, was composed and fully rehearsed within a week in 1914.

"Serenata in vano is a humorous trifle," Nielsen wrote. "First the gentlemen play in a somewhat chivalric and showy manner to lure the fair one out onto the balcony, but she does not appear. Then they play in a slightly languorous strain (Poco adagio), but that hasn't any effect either. Since they have played in vain (in vano), they don't care a straw and shuffle off home to the strains of the little final march, which they play for their own amusement."
