The earliest serious representative of Impressionism in Norway was Alf Hurum (1882-1972). By 1916, when he gave the first concert of his own work, he had studied in Berlin, Paris, and St. Petersburg. His compositions from this period already display some features of Impressionism, and in his his Exoctic Suite og 1918 the Impressionist influence is conspicuous. Other works of mention include the orchestral suite Fairy Tale Land (1920), a symphonic poem Benedict and Aarolilja (1923) <a href="https
