Our Nordic adventures continue, this time anchored by selections from Grieg’s beloved Peer Gynt. You’ll also hear how Norway’s Ørjan Matre takes a collection of Grieg piano pieces and creates an otherworldly and welcoming soundscape. Fun Fact: Denmark’s Carl Nielsen was at the summer home of Grieg’s widow when he began to compose his only violin concerto.
