Solveig's Song (from Peer Gynt Suite No. 2)
Roll over or click to zoom in
Composed by Edvard Grieg in 1875, music from
Peer Gynt was originally incidental music for Henrik Ibsen's five-act play. The beautiful “Solveig's Song” is from the second orchestral suite later extracted by Grieg. Johnnie's tender setting opens with a lyric theme scored for the trumpet section. A brief
andante section features the woodwinds before returning to the opening melody this time richly scored for full band. A beautiful work for teaching lyric style playing.
