Arnljot
''Arnljot'' is an opera by the Swedish composer Wilhelm Peterson-Berger. Written in 1906, it premiered April 13, 1910 and was revised in 1956.
The origin to ''Arnljot'' is a melody that Wilhelm Peterson-Berger created when he first visited Jämtland in 1898. When he journeyed over Storsjön he was inspired by the nearby mountains, Oviksfjällen. The opera consists of three parts and the historical foundation of the opera is the character ''Arnljot Gelline'' that is mentioned in Snorri Sturluson saga about ''Olav Haraldsson (den Helige, Rex perpetuus Norvegiae)'' and the writings on Frösöstenen, the rune stone that is placed on Frösön. Out of these components, Wilhelm Peterson-Berger wrote his drama.
==Performance history==
The original performance of ''Arnljot'' as an opera were put on in on April 13, 1910 at the Royal Theater in Stockholm.〔(History of the Royal Swedish Opera ) (retrieved Sep 11, 2007)〕 However, Wilhelm Peterson-Berger had already two years earlier allowed amateurs to perform parts of the texts and music on Frösön on a midsummer night eve. Nearly 3.000 persons witnessed this amateur performance of the Arnljot play.
Today, each summer the ''Arnljot'' play (the opera is performed as a play, but the texts and music remains the same) staged in an outdoor environment on the island of Frösön, close to where the actual premiere took place in 1908. The background of the stage is a panoramic view over Storsjön and Oviksfjällen; thus, when the audience hears the introduction tune of the opera, they see the same view as Wilhelm Peterson-Berger did when he created the opera. 2012 is the 73rd summer with Arnljot on Frösön since 1935.
