Ballad for Edvard Grieg

Posted by Kingcuan on Wednesday, March 21, 2012


“How hard it is to over-praise the vitality and distinction of this princely pianist… His authority and finesse are total. Finely recorded, this disc is the best possible introduction to Grieg's range and character in his piano music.” --Gramophone

“Andsnes is an aristocrat among pianists who has the gift of uncovering new depths without any loss of spontaneity of the slightest trace of artifice.” --BBC Music Magazine





"I always feel a sense of homecoming when I perform Grieg yet I don't think that this is necessarily because I am Norwegian. Grieg's music has a universal feeling - a sense of drawing the listener in - and that is probably why he remains Norway's most eminent composer even now, 100 years after his death." Leif Ove Andsnes
