The 1880s and 1890s are known as The Golden Age of Music in Norway. Edvard Grieg and Johan Svendsen are prominent composers at the time. A notable element of their music is that they incorporated Norwegian folk music (inspired by the nationalist Ole Bull). 

​

Moments where music can be incorporated into the production are in preparation for the Christmas Party and during the Christmas Party which takes place above Nora and Helmer's apartment. 

​

In preparation for the Christmas party, Helmer and Dr. Rank play the tarantella as Nora dances in the living room, rehearsing for her performance at the party.
