Grieg was a master of the miniature, an aspect of his genius shown in this collection of works for string orchestra. The popular Holberg Suite translates a set of baroque dances into contemporary idiom. The other works are derived by the composer from earlier songs or piano pieces, of which Grieg wrote a very large number. The Two Elegiac Melodies, Last Spring and The Wounded Heart, are among Grieg’s most popular works. Established in 1998, the internationally renowned Oslo Camerata has its own concert series at the Old Masonic Lodge in Oslo, which dates from Grieg’s time.
