Elves' Hill ({{lang-da|Elverhøj}}) is a comedy by Johan Ludvig Heiberg, with overture and incidental music by Friedrich Kuhlau (Op. 100), which is considered the first Danish national play.

History

Elves' Hill was commissioned by Frederik VI for the wedding of his daughter Vilhelmine Marie and Frederik Carl Christian (later Frederik VII) and premiered on November 6, 1828, 5 days after the wedding.[1][2] Since the premiere, the play has been performed more than 1,000 times at the Royal Danish Theatre.[3]

Music

The work incorporated both the texts and melodies of two traditional ballad pieces featuring folklore about the Elven king. Heiberg localized the legend of the Elven king to Stevns.[4] To these, the motif element of the swapped children was added. King Christian IV is cast as a sort of detective, who unravels the mystery.

These ballads had appeared in Udvalgte Danske Viser fra Middelalderen (1812), edited by {{Interlanguage link multi|Werner Abrahamson|2=da|3=Werner Abrahamson|preserve=1}}.[4][7][8][9]

The work also contains "Kong Christian stod ved højen mast", which became the royal anthem of Denmark. It is set to Kuhlau's arrangement to a tune already being sung to the lyrics originally written by Johannes Ewald for an entirely different play.[10] However Elves' Hill is considered instrumental to the romantic popularity of the anthem.

In popular culture

In the eighth Olsen-banden movie (Olsen-banden ser rødt), the Olsen gang bombs, drills, and hammers its way through an opera house's basement in synchronicity with the music of the Elverhøj Overture.
