Homage to Grieg

BBC Singers, conductor Bo Holten

This concert recorded last year to mark the 150th anniversary of Grieg's birth includes motets, partsongs and piano music (including Percy Grainger 's three-minute version of the Piano Concerto) and the first modern performance of a real curiosity: a cantata Grieg wrote in 1873 for a Bergen piano factory.
