Edvard Grieg: Symphonic Works 2 (Vinyl LP)

The LP Edvard Grieg: Symphonic Works Vol. II presents more highlights from audite's complete edition of Grieg's symphonic works on 180g vinyl : his second Peer Gynt suite from the incidental music to Henrik Ibsen's drama Peer Gynt, the story of the Nordic Faust which inspired Grieg to compose a sonic panorama of the Norwegian character - from the melancholy song of the abandoned Solveig to Peer Gynt's stormy homecoming; the Funeral March in Memory of Rikard Nordraak which Grieg wrote after the death of his close friend; the famous suite From Holberg's Time, a homage to Ludvig Holberg, the caustic Moliere of the North; and Klokkeklang (bell ringing) - an almost impressionist study documenting a surprisingly visionary trait of the otherwise rather conservative composer. The mythical stage characters, the vivid portrayal of landscapes and the Nordic dance rhythms are presented in audiophile vinyl LP sound.
