Music Inspired By His Work
Two composers have written music to works by Kinck: Ludvig Irgens-Jensen and Eivind Groven. Groven wrote a number of songs based on texts from Kinck's plays. His first symphony is inspired by the play Driftekaren. Wolfgang Plagge has also composed music based on themes from his novels. Randall Meyers scored the movie Flaggermusvinger (Batwings, 1992), based on three of Kinck's short stories.
