Peer Gynt

Album by Edvard Grieg & San Francisco Symphony & Herbert Blomstedt

Peer Gynt is incidental music composed by Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg in 1875 for Henrik Ibsen's play. The score combines Romantic orchestral colour with folk‑inspired themes and dramatic character pieces, and Grieg later arranged portions into orchestral suites that helped establish the work in the concert repertoire and in his own compositional legacy.
