Starring the Norwegian actor Toralv Maurstad as Edvard, Florence Henderson as his wife Nina, and Frank Porretta as the Norwegian composer Rikard Nordraak. The music in this scene is from Grieg's Piano Concerto in A minor, movement 1 (Allegro molto moderato), with lyrics by Robert Wright and George Forrest. Rikaard: I'll right the world and its wrong if you are near me. Nina: I'll be near you. Edvard: I'll sing such wonderful songs if you can hear me. Nina: I will hear you. All: Here, here on our hill of dreams; Stand, stand with your hand in mine; I see a horizon shining and clear, When we're together. Rikaard: I'll find a place in the sun with you to guide me! Nina: I will guide you Edvard: My darkest battle is won if you're beside me. Nina: I'm beside you All: We're weaving a million schemes - Here, high on our Hill of dreams. Soon we'll bring them all so beautifully true, If I have you And we're together. I'll be near you.
