Album by Edvard Grieg & Frederic Chiu & Pierre Amoyal

Violin Sonatas Nos. 1-3 are a set of violin sonatas by Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg, first published between 1865 and 1887. They combine Romantic-era lyricism and folk-inspired melodies with prominent pianistic accompaniment, representing Grieg's early-to-middle-period chamber music and their role in the development of Scandinavian national romanticism in classical music.
