Peer Gynt / Holberg Suite
Album by Edvard Grieg & Gewandhausorchester Leipzig & Václav Neumann & Nederlands Kamerorkest & David Zinman
Peer Gynt / Holberg Suite is a recording of orchestral works by Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg, with the Peer Gynt music composed in 1875 and the Holberg Suite composed in 1884. The music features Romantic-era orchestration and lyrical melodies infused with Norwegian folk elements, and it occupies a central position in Grieg's output and in the development of musical nationalism in the late 19th century.
