| | Piano Concerto (Grieg) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Grieg's concerto is often compared to the Piano Concerto of Robert Schumann â” it is in the same key, the opening descending flourish on the piano is similar, and the overall style is considered to be closer to Schumann than any other single composer. | | | Additionally, Grieg's work provides evidence of his interest in Norwegian folk music â” the opening flourish is based around the motif of a falling second (see interval) followed by a falling third, which is typical of the folk music of Grieg's native country. | | | It is written for solo piano, two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, timpani, violins, violas, cellos and double basses. |

| | Lesson Tutor: Classical Composer Profile: Edvard Grieg |
| | Grieg was a musical patriot, and like many other nationalist composers, turned for inspiration to native folk song and dance, and this flavour flows steadily through nearly everything he wrote. | | | He was happiest writing in the smaller forms of music — piano pieces, chamber music and songs for his wife for example, rather than symphonies or concertos. | | | Grieg made up two Suites (groups of pieces) from his incidental music to Peer Gynt especially for concert performance, and among the other tunes in these Suites are the well known and popular pieces ‘ In the Hall of the Mountain King ' |

| | Grieg wrote his first set of miniature pieces for the piano, The Lyric Pieces in 1867. | | | She was also musically oriented as she was a well- known soprano and a great interpreter of Grieg's songs. | | | This piece was a five movement piece for the piano written like an 18th century dance suite. |

| | DeGreef Grieg Concerto |
| | De Greef recorded an acoustic abbreviated version of Grieg's concerto in 1921 for Victor and made the first complete recording of the concerto for the same label January 18, 1927 in the early days of electric recording, heard on this new CD. | | | Grieg totally endorsed De Greef's performance of his music ("De Greef is the best interpreter of my music I have met with"), although later he also endorsed Percy Grainger in the same fashion -- and the two pianists' performance styles differed significantly as can be heard from the latter's live recordings. | | | They became fast friends and remained so until Grieg's death in 1907. |

| | The piano concerto is quite lovely, and very balanced with the themes and music. | | | For those of you that are curious, this was the great age of the concerto, where a soloist (usually on the violin or piano, or another instrument) would have the real work of the piece, with the orchestra proving background and bridging sections along with counterpoint to give the music some interesting and life. | | | I've been a late comer to the piano music of Robert Schumann, but the Grieg Piano Concerto has been one of my favorite pieces from the Romantic period. |

| | Grieg: Greatest Hits |
| | I bought this for the recording of Grieg's Piano Concerto in A Minor, but I like the Homage March from Sigurd Jorsalfar even more. | | | All of Grieg's music has a sad, melancholy sound which means Scandinavia to me. | | | There were a few pieces I wish that it would include, such as the rest of his Piano Concerto No.2, or perhaps The Rach, but the fact that the performances are generally great and the recording quality is near-perfect makes... |

| | Grieg notes |
| | Fashioned roughly on the Piano Concerto in A minor of Robert Schumann, the tone and flavor of the piece are uniquely Grieg's. | | | From the outset, we are dazzled with brilliant arpeggios and scales that cover the gamut of the piano. | | | A massive crescendo on the timpani introduces the piano, which demonstrates its entire range with a dramatic seven octave descent from the highest octave to the lowest tone. |

| | Grieg/Gade Choral Works |
| | Edward Grieg (1843-1907), known primarily for his oft-performed Piano concerto in A minor, both Peer Gynt Suites, dozens of piano pieces and memorable songs, composed very few sacred choral pieces. | | | Noteworthy are a “Gebeth” with its beautiful layering of treble voices, and the double-choir antiphonal music found in Pàske. | | | Throughout these and the other Grieg and Gade pieces, the joy is relishing the beautiful melodies, gorgeous textures, and choral blend so magnificently achieved by the very fine Danish National Radio Choir under Jesper Grove Jørgensen. |

| | Edward Grieg |
| | Grieg was first and foremost a lyrical composer; his op.33 Vinje settings, for example, encompass a wide range of emotional expression and atmospheric colour, and the ten opus numbers of Lyric Pieces for piano hold a wealth of characteristic mood-sketches. | | | But he also was a pioneer, in the impressionistic uses of harmony and piano sonority in his late songs and in the dissonance treatment in the Slatter op.72, peasant fiddle-tunes arranged for piano. | | | Apart from promoting Norwegian music through concerts of his own works, he obtained pupils, became conductor of the Harmoniske Selskab, projected a Norwegian Academy of Music and helped found the Christiania Musikforening (1871), meanwhile composing his Piano Concerto (1868) and the important piano arrangements of 25 of Lindeman's folksongs (op.17, 1869). |

| | Nina stayed with her family in Copenhagen while Edvard retired to the country to compose, and by the end of the summer he had finished the solo part of his piano concerto and had outlined the orchestration. | | | In Copenhagen, by contrast, audiences were enthusiastic about music in general, and Scandinavian music in particular. | | | In later years, he wrote that he and his friends had finally given up trying to perform with ``life and spirit,'' and been reduced to making music only in their own homes. |
