Arr. Wil Van Der Beek. Par GRIEG EDVARD. La Marche d’Hommage de l’acte III de la suite orchestrale Sigurd Jorsalfar d’Edvard Grieg, se trouve à l’opposé des marches au caractère sombre ou martial. L’introduction en forme de fanfare est superbement lyrique. Puis vient l’exposition d’un thème joué cantabile. L’instrumentation développe quelque peu le thème initial avec des accents rythmiques à la basse. Le thème de la marche est ainsi amorcé. Un trio central, lumineux et serein, précède le retour du thème de marche au tutti. / Niveau : 4 / Marche / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Arr. James Curnow. Par GRIEG EDVARD. Lorsqu’il écrit la superbe pièce en vers Peer Gynt en 1867, Henrik Ibsen la conçoit alors simplement comme un “poème dramatique”, sans penser à d’éventuelles représentations théâtrales de l’oeuvre. Ce n’est que quelques années plus tard qu’il adaptera le texte pour la scène. Il s’assure alors la collaboration d’Edvard Grieg qui composa les 23 tableaux de la musique de scène. James Curnow a rassemblé quatre des plus célèbres tableaux de la Suite pour Orchestre n° 1 : Au matin, La mort d’Åse, Danse d’Anitra et Dans lepalais du Roi de la montagne . / Niveau : 2 / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Par GRIEG EDVARD. En 1880, Edvard Grieg achève ses Douze mélodies sur des poèmes d’Aasmund Olavsson, Op. 33. Par la suite, il réalise une version pour Orchestre à Cordes de deux mélodies extraites de ce cycle, et les publie sous le titre de Deux mélodies élégiaques, Op. 34. Il s’agit de deux pièces profondément mélancoliques, comme l’annoncent les sous-titres : Coeur blessé et Dernier printemps. Tohru Takahashi a réalisé une superbe transcription de la seconde mélodie, expressive et pleine de sensibilité ( Dernier printemps/Last Spring ). / Niveau : 3 / Transcription / Date parution : 1905-06-26/ Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

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.

La musique populaire norvégienne joua un rôle majeur dans pratiquement toute l'oeuvre de Edvard Grieg. Pour les Danses norvégiennes op. 35, présentées ici en édition Urtext, le compositeur a utilisé d'anciennes mélodies populaires empruntées à une anthologie du musicien et musicologue Ludvig Mathias Lindeman et les a adaptées en 1880 pour piano à quatre mains. L'édition Henle a été préparée sur la base des premières éditions et de tous les autographes conservés dans les archives Grieg de Bergen. Le pianiste norvégien et spécialiste de Grieg Einar Steen-Nøkleberg a fait office de coéditeur et s'est chargé des doigtés. / Piano 4 Mains

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 the dwarfs? 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 now only 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 Einar Steen-Nøkleberg. / Piano
