EDVARD GRIEG (1843-1907)
Music for String Orchestra
String Quartet No.1 in G minor, Op.27 (arr. for string orch. by R. Tognetti)
Two Elegiac Melodies for string orchestra, Op.34;
Erotikk, Op.43 No. 5 (from Lyric Pieces, Book III) (arr. for violin and string orch. by R. Tognetti – Richard Tognetti, solo violin)
Fra Holbergs tid (Holberg Suite), Op.40
Australian Chamber Orchestra,
Richard Tognetti (artistic director and lead violin)
On this disc, Richard Tognetti and the Australian Chamber Orchestra play string works by Edvard Grieg.
The ACO perform perennial favourites such as the Holberg Suite and the two Elegiac Melodies, Grieg’s own orchestrations of two of his best-loved songs: Last Spring and The Wounded Heart.
The programme also includes Richard Tognetti’s adaptation of String Quartet No.1 and the ravishingly lyrical piano composition Erotikk from the composer’s celebrated collection of Lyric Pieces.
Previous recordings with Tognetti and the ACO on BIS including Mozart’s violin concerti (BISSACD1754 and BISSACD1755), have been met with critical acclaim: Gramophone’s described the team as ‘an outstanding band’ with ‘a keen individual and collective feel for style and character’, and The Observer praised their ‘gloriously exciting, tangy edged, alert and playful sound.’
