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

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

Arr. Philip Sparke. Par GRIEG EDVARD. The melodies, harmonies, moods and rhythms of Norwegian folk songs and dance (even the sounds of Norwegian folk instruments) permeate the music of Edvard Grieg (1843-1907). After studying in Leipzig and Copenhagen he returned to Norway and a chance meeting with Norwegian nationalist Rikard Nordraak ignited his interest in folk music and laid the foundation for his compositional style. His most famous orchestral works are the Piano Concerto (1868) and the incidental music to Ibsen’s play Peer Gynt (1875). He wrote many collections of folk music for piano and these two tunes come from his 25 Norwegian Folk Songs and Dances, op. 17. / Niveau : 2 / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie
