Violin Sonatas nos. 1-3

Album by Edvard Grieg & Henning Kraggerud & Helge Kjekshus

Violin Sonatas Nos. 1-3 are a set of three violin sonatas by Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg, composed between 1865 and 1887. Characterised by lyrical, folk-influenced melodies and close piano-violin interplay, the sonatas reflect Grieg's development of a national Romantic voice and occupy an important place in the Scandinavian chamber-music repertoire.
