Edvard Grieg: Peer Gynt Suites Nos. 1 and 2 (piano duet)

En 1888, Grieg organisé quatre pièces de sa musique de scène pour le drame verset Peer Gynt d'Ibsen pour former une suite d'orchestre (op. 46). Elle a été suivie en 1891 par une deuxième suite pour orchestre (op. 55) comprenant encore 4 pièces. Les deux suites sont rapidement devenus établis dans le répertoire de concert et ont largement contribué à la renommée internationale de Grieg. Il a fait des arrangements pour piano des deux suites et publié simultanément avec les suites pour orchestre en 1888 et 1893. Grieg ensuite fait d'autresajustements dans les pièces pour piano: raccourcir certains, par exemple 'Morning', et l'expansion d'autres comme 'La mort de l'ASE'. Dans l'ensemble, Grieg réduit la conception orchestrale dramatique au profit d'une expression plus intime et effets plus sobre. / Piano

The Peer Gynt Suite may be Edvard Grieg's most famous composition. Its melodies have insinuated themselves into our culture so that they are now universally familiar. The movements are: Morning Song Asa's Death Anitra's Dance and In the Hall of the Mountain King. This edition presents for the first time the entire suite in a version for solo guitar. This is a substantial work for the guitarist that while requiring solid technique is quite rewardingfor both the player and the audience. Also included is a transcription of Grieg's beautiful Solveig's Song.'

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?œuvre. 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?Ã…se Danse d?Anitra et Dans lepalais du Roi de la montagne.

Version for Piano two-Hands-Grieg?s incidental music for Henrik Ibsen?s drama ?Peer Gynt? contains some of his best-known compositions such as ?Morning mood? and ?In the hall of the Mountain King?. Grieg later extractedthe most beautiful pieces to form two orchestral suites and arranged himself these versions for Piano solo and Piano four-hands. There was a surprise in store for Henle when they were preparing our Urtext edition. In theautograph and the first print run the second suite contained another movement the ?Dance of the Mountain King?s Daughter? which Grieg deleted shortly afterwards. This charming dance appears in the appendix to thisedition printed again for the first time in 120 years! The Norwegian pianist and Grieg expert Einar Steen-Nøkleberg was co-editor for this edition and also provided the new fingerings.

Ever since the first performance of the Peer Gynt Suite No.1 in 1876 this work has remained one of the most often performed compositions in the romantic repertoire. It was only a matter of time before other ensembles adapted the work and the present arrangement for Woodwind Quintet of the four-movement suite does justice to the sound world of Grieg exploring the subtle nuances of these five very individual instruments. Included are naturally ?Morning? ?Aase?s Death? ?Anitra?s Dance? and the jewel of the suite ?In the Hall of the Mountain King?. The edition also includes a reference score to ease rehearsal ofthe work.- Valuable addition to the Woodwind Quintet literature.- Reference score- Parts for Flute Oboe Clarinet (in A) Horn (in e) Horn Bassoon
