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.

1.Cow Keeper's Song 2.Wedding March. Die Musik von Edvard Grieg ist durchdrungen von Melodien, Harmonien, Stimmungen und Rhythmen norwegischer Volkslieder und -tänze, man hört sogar norwegische Instrumente erklingen. Zu seinen berühmtesten Orchesterwerken zählen das Piano Concerto (1868) und die Vertonung von Ibsens Peer Gynt (1875). Darüber hinaus komponierte er viel Volksmusik für Klavier, darunter auch diese beiden Melodien, die 25 Norwegian Folk Songs and Dances, op. 17 entnommen sind.
