Favored Recording of Grieg

"I am most fond of much of Grieg's works, especially Peer Gynt and Sigurd Jorsalfar.This is the consummate recording for me. His rendering of the Peer Gynt Suite is outstanding. In addition to the choral contributions which other recordings omit (this adds much to "The Hall of the Mountain King) Jarvi's pace on Morning Mood and The Hall of the Mountain King is simply the best. Morning Mood on other recordings is played too fast, which at the end looses the awesomeness of morning sunrise to this reviewer.The Gothenburg Symphony performs magnificently, with due accolades given to the woodwinds and horns for their subtle, exquisite performance.I would consider this or an equivalent on Grieg to be a needed part of one's classical collection. It is one of my favorites."
Powerfull and quiet.
