Holberg Suite, Melodies & Dances

Album by Edvard Grieg & Michala Petri & English Chamber Orchestra & Okko Kamu

Holberg Suite, Melodies & Dances is a suite by Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg, composed in 1884 for piano and later orchestrated in 1885. Written in a neo‑Baroque style that evokes 18th‑century dance forms, the work blends lyrical melodies with spirited dance rhythms and showcases Grieg's engagement with historical forms within his broader national‑romantic output.
