£61.00Air - Edvard Grieg
The Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg is still popular because of his theatre music for Ibsen's 'Peer Gynt' and his Piano Concerto opus 16. The suite 'Fra Holbergs Tid' (Holberg Suite) opus 40 was originally written for piano and then arranged for strings. Ludwig Holberg was a dramatist who got the nickname 'Molire of Northern Europe'. In this suite Grieg used several old dances (sarabande, gavotte, rigaudon) with completely new original harmonies. Willy Hautvast made this fine arrangement of the 'Air', a subtle andante religioso, extrac-ted from this suite.

£186.20Dolly Suite - Gabriel Fauré
DOLLY SUITEThe French composer and organist Gabriel Faur (Pamiers 1845 - Paris 1924) was professor of composition at the Paris Conservatory of Music and among his pupils were Maurice Ravel, Nadia Boulanger, Florent Schmitt and Charles Koechlin. It was only after many years that he was also recognized as a great composer outside France. He composed songs, piano music, chamber music, stage music, operas, orchestral pieces and a worldfamous Requiem. His 'Dolly Suite' opus 56 was composed between 1893 and 1896 for fourhanded piano. The six parts are 'Berceuse', 'Mi-a-ou', 'Le Jardin de Dolly' (Dolly's Garden), 'Kitty-valse', 'Tendresse' (Tenderness) and 'Le Pas Espagnol' (The Spanish step). The suite was already orchestrated in 1896 by the French composer Henri Rabaud, winner of the Grand Prix de Rome in 1894.

£61.00Fruhlingsrauschen - Christian Sinding
This excerpt from 'Six Piano Pieces' opus 32, is the only work of the Norwegian composer and pianist Christian Sinding (1856-1941) that remained popular, as well as a piano piece as in several arrangements of all kind. His operas, symphonies, concertos and chamber music, on the other hand, have all sank into oblivion. Sinding belongs with Edvard Grieg and Johan Svendsen to the generation of the late romantic Norvegian composers. His piece 'Frhlingsrauschen' (Rustle of Spring) suggests the birth of Spring and belongs to the better kind of the so-called 'salon music'.

£248.99Three Movements - André Waignein
These three movements for piano and band depict three stages of a musical journey. We set off on a long journey through the world of musical virtuosity in the style of Liszt : grand, lustrous and lyrical. The second stage is a peaceful stroll, the start of a dream. The colours are like a tender caress and the piano sketches transparent arabesques. This splendid impressionistic journey ends in two bright pink drops which evapore just in time before the third and last movement explodes.The last movement is driven forward by a raging rhythm, as relentless as a war-dance. In a confrontation between the soloist and the orchestra all the inner strength of the composer comes to thesurface so that the musicians in the end are breathless... but all the same, no less satisfied.

£74.99Two Norwegian Folk Tunes - Edvard Grieg
The melodies, harmonies, moods and rhythms of Norwegian folk songs and dance (even the sounds of Norwegian folk instruments) permeate the music of Edvard Grieg (1843-1907). After studying in Leipzig and Copenhagen he returned to Norway and a chance meeting with Norwegian nationalist Rikard Nordraak ignited his interest in folk music and laid the foundation for his compositional style. His most famous orchestral works are the Piano Concerto (1868) and the incidental music to Ibsen's play Peer Gynt (1875). He wrote many collections of folk music for piano and these two tunes come from his 25 Norwegian Folk Songs and Dances, op. 17.
