For example, his Piano Concerto and his Lyric Pieces sound like a mix between Romanticism and Impressionism, especially his Nocturne, 2nd Movement of his Piano Concerto, Wedding at Troldhaugen, Butterfly, middle part of March of the Trolls etc. The Lyric Pieces are the ones that are more Impressionistic and are incredibly magical. I think he was quite ahead of his time.
would be grateful if someone could make it, since I can't find it anywhere :)
Happy November! A new month means a new composer at A Lifetime of Music.
For November we are visiting Edvard Grieg. This week's playlist includes some of his earliest works, such as his Symphony in C minor (which he wanted never to be performed again), Piano Sonata, Piano Concerto, and In Autumn, among many others. The young Grieg loved music, but was not too fond of studying. He also suffered life-threatening lung infections and thankfully survived, although the effects lasted throughout his life.
Take a listen, read a bit, and join me on this journey of Norway.
Next week we Peer further into his music and life.
For more information on A Lifetime of Music check out my profile.
Can someone please make a town tune of morning mood by Edvard Grieg, as I've been trying to make it but have failed.
