Info for Grieg: Lyric Pieces

Norwegian miniatures: "I have composed my piano music so that it can be played, sung and heard in every fisherman's hut and farmhouse in Norway where there is a piano!" wrote Edvard Grieg.

Over the course of his life, he composed a total of 66 Lyric Pieces, spread over 10 volumes: expressive piano miniatures that capture very different facets of his style and are inspired by the music, nature and legends of Norway.

Even during his lifetime, they brought the composer fame and recognition in and outside Norway, and they are still extremely popular today - whether in concert or on recordings.

Although they are often labelled as "easy repertoire for students and amateurs", such an attribution falls short: they require a high degree of skill and musicality to be able to reproduce them in their unobtrusive beauty and authenticity ...
