Arr. Ed Keeley. Par LENNON / EDVARD GRIEG / PAUL MCCARTNEY. Norwegian Woodn’t développe successivement deux célèbres mélodies. Tout d’abord, le prélude Au matin, extrait de Peer Gynt - Suite n° 1 du maître norvégien Edvard Grieg, puis la mélodie du très original Norwegian Wood des Beatles. Cette ballade acoustique signée John Lennon figure sur l’album Rubber Soul (1965). Il existe plusieurs hypothèses sur le sens probable du titre de la chanson. Quoiqu’il en soit, le titre de cet arrangement s’explique tout simplement par l’origine des deux mélodies constitutives de la trame musicale. Les deux thèmes s’alternent, se suivent et s’imbriquent pour former un ensemble évident. Avec NorwegianWoodn’t, Ed Keeley propose un point de vue musical original entre musique classique et musique pop. / Niveau : 3 / Pop and rock / Date parution : 1905-06-29/ Recueil / Concert Band ou Harmonie

A lyrical piece from Edvard Grieg's song-cycle 'Haugtussa' ( The Mountain Maid) originally for voice and piano but here in an arrangement for Soprano Cornet and Brassband by Tom Brevik Een lyrische werk van Edvard Grieg uit de liederencyclus ''Haugtussa'' (The Mountain Maid) oorspronkelijk voor stem en piano maar hier in een arrangement voor Es Cornet en Brassband van Tom Brevik.

Edvard Grieg (1843-1907) a délibérément choisi de donner à ses œuvres une touche norvégienne et nordique très personnelle. La notoriété de plusieurs de ses œuvres a dépassé les frontières de la Scandinavie. Ainsi le Concerto pour piano en La mineur (1868) et la musique de scène Peer Gynt (1876) ont été salués par les mélomanes du monde entier. Edvard Grieg a également composé un grand nombre de mélodies chansons et lieder. Jacob de Haana choisi d?arranger trois de ces chansons : Fremad! Fremad! une chanson au caractère majestueux ; Stille Nu! plus mélancolique en raison de sa tonalité mineure et Fola Fola Blakken unallegro plein de gaieté qui vient conclure cette petite suite en trois parties.

For Piano-Edvard Grieg (1843-1907) was born in Bergen Norway and studied Piano at the Leipzig Conservatory. He became interested in Norwegian folksong and began to employ it as a source of musical material and inspiration inhis compositions. He was soon established as a major composer. Despite his success Grieg was of a retiring disposition and spent most of his time at his house in Troldhaugen near Bergen avoiding visitors and shunning publicacclaim. Grieg's entire creative life is exemplified by his 66 Lyric Pieces for Piano. He composed ten sets of these pieces between 1867 and 1901. They are almost unique in that they are accessible toamateur pianists but still performed and recorded by professionals. Their melodic expressiveness and contagious dance rhythms give them an enduring charm and individuality. For this CD Keith Snell has carefully chosen 14selections that students enjoy most from Grieg's Lyric Pieces.

With his ?Lyric Pieces? Edvard Grieg was writing a kind of poetic piano diary: between 1867 and 1901 he composed 66 short character pieces published in ten books. Pieces such as ?Wedding Day at Troldhaugen? ?March of thedwarfs? or ?To the spring? are among Grieg?s best-known works. Alongside these fairly virtuosic pieces there are also numerous simpler dances and melodies that can be played at an early stage when learning the piano. Until nowonly five single books were available from Henle (HN 619 627 644 681 713) but now we are publishing the complete collection in a collected volume with fingerings by the Norwegian pianist and Grieg specialist EinarSteen-Nøkleberg.
