Scenes from the Saga of King Olaf

You can freely and lawfully download a printable score for this Work from IMSLP - the Petruci Music Library - though it may not be exactly the same as the one used to make the Midi Files below, and it probably won't be as good as a proper paid-for engraved and printed score.

There is a competent performance of this Work by the Longfellow Chorus under Charles Kaufmann, on YouTube starting here.

Here is a "clickable" Table of the available Midi Files for this Work.
