Grieg: At the Piano

Description

Edvard Grieg was a master of the Romantic miniature for piano, and with his ten volumes of "lyric pieces" he more or less created a new genre all on his own. These works offer an abundance of wonderful pieces that are ideal for a guided return to the piano. It proved difficult for Henle to choose a selection of them for this volume! But, they did and also offer well-known pieces from the orchestral suites From Holberg 's Time and Peer Gynt , which Grieg himself arranged for the piano. Naturally they are presented superbly in true Urtext.
