About this arrangement

Orchestra String Orchestra (8-8-5-5-5 in set) SKU: AP.36-A104202 Composed by Edvard Grieg. Performance Music Ensemble; String Orchestra. Kalmus Orchestra Library. Masterwork; Romantic. Score and Part(s). LudwigMasters Publications #36-A104202. Published by LudwigMasters Publications (AP.36-A104202). UPC: 679360640791. English.Subtitled Suite in olden style, this five-movement suite was written to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the birth of Dano-Norwegian humanist playwright Ludvig Holberg. Each movement is based on 18th-century dance forms and styles, but written from an 19th-century perspective, serving as a harbinger of the neoclassicism movement to follow. Originally written for piano, Grieg arranged the work for string orchestra only a year after originally composed. While not as well-known as his incidental music from PEER GYNT, many consider this work to be of equal quality. A count of 8-8-5-5-5 strings are included in the set. These products are currently being prepared by a new publisher. While many items are ready and will ship on time, some others may see delays of several months.
