About

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE BLU-RAY DISC INCLUDED IN THIS SET IS BLU-RAY AUDIO ONLY. BOTH THE SACD AND BLU-RAY DISCS CONTAIN THE SAME MUSIC.

In 2007, conductor Rolf Gupta gave the first Norwegian performance of Edvard Grieg’s Piano Concerto in A minor with the legendary Australian pianist Percy Grainger as the posthumous soloist. On this recording, the orchestra accompanies Grainger’s original interpretation of the concerto.

Also included are a handful of Grieg’s Lyric pieces performed by the composer himself and brought to live by modern technology.

Astonishingly, these performances have not been available in any format until now.
