The Art of Grieg
Hohenzolern@aol.com | LA | 08/12/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Edvard Grieg is a masterful composer. He is rich with lyric tapestry of music and remains faithful to his Norwegian homeland. In fact, upon hearing such suites as Peer Gynt, we can travel with the music as it takes us to snowy mountain summits and cool dark moonlit evenings. Peer Gynt is marvelous. Morning Song is known and loved all over, it can really perk you up in the morning. You can find it in any Morning Music cd. Aase's Death is tragic and melancholy with its use of strings. The Holberg Suite, meant to portray romantic scenes of Holberg, Norway is a delightful set of "serenade music." The prelude allegro vivace has an opening of strings evoking a dark and typically Romantic style. The Gavotte is very entertaining. If you love the music of Grieg, I would purchase this cd. It's one of his more well known works, along with the Piano Concerto No. 2. Grieg is Great. There is no better, yet simple way to put it into words."
