An NCPA Presentation
Grieg: Holberg Suite
In this series of talks on Western classical music, Dr. Cavas Bilimoria takes listeners through musical concepts, the lives of composers and their famous works, interspersed with examples from recorded music. This talk, the second in the series this month, explores the Holberg Suite, a set of short pieces composed by Edvard Grieg to mark the 200th birth anniversary of noted Norwegian playwright Ludvig Holberg. Subtitled ‘Suite in the Olden Style’, the work flourishes in the Baroque style but is imbued with Grieg’s Romanticism. The great reception of the original piano version prompted him to adapt it for a string orchestra.
