From his Album for Male Voices, Op. 30, a set of 12 Norwegian folksongs set for chorus with male leads, The Great Angelic Host was arranged for double mixed chorus by Eyvind H. Bull, and has here been edited by Walter Aschenbrenner. We are pleased to make this exquisite choral work available once again. David Monrad Johansen, in his published life of Grieg, was moved to say, In The Great Angelic Host true religious feeling has been given the purest expression. This composition shows what wonderful material we have right at hand on which to base a future church music for Norway..

Grieg's violin sonatas are a firm staple of violin repertoire and are popular with amateurs and professionals alike. G. Henle Publishers takes this into account with a practical single-volume edition of the three sonatas. Thus, you are simply spoilt for choice as to whether you prefer the youthful zest of the first, the Nordic-folkloristic charm of the second or the mature drama of the third sonata. The opulent volume is rounded off by a small piece that is ideal as an encore: a march from Grieg's incidental music to Sigurd Jorsalfar, which the composer himself arranged for violin and piano. Therefore, this Henle Urtext edition actually offers GriegÂs complete oeuvre for this instrumentation â a âmust-haveâ for all fans of the great Nordic melodist.

Grieg’s suite from ‘Sigurd Jorsalfar’ remains one of his most popular works and here, arranged by Wil van der Beek, we are pleased to be able to offer a version for Concert Band. This one will be a sure-fire hit with any fans of classical music. In 1872 - Twee jaar voor hij Peer Gynt gegon te werken - componeerde Grieg de muziek bij het toneelstuk Sigurd Jorsalfar (Sigurd de kruisvaarder) van Bjørnsterne Bjørnsons. Enkele jaren later voegde hij de drie belangrijksteorkestgedeel ten samen tot een gelijknamige concertsuite. In The King's Hall is overigens de orkestversie van een inn 1867 door Grieg geschreven gavotte voor viool en piano. Wil van der Beek schreef de versie voor armonieorkest. In der Königshalle erweckt die Atmosphäre der historischen Szenerie, in der sich das mittelalterliche Drama Sigurd Jorsalfar abspielt, zum Leben. In der Bühnenmusik wird mit diesem Stück der zweite Akt eingeleitet, in dem die beiden Brüder zum Wortgefecht um den Königsthron in der Königshalle antreten. Wil van der Beek schuf eine authentische, überzeugende Bearbeitung für Blasorchester von Edvard Griegs Komposition. Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson influença profondément la littérature norvégienne du XIXème siècle. En 1872, Grieg écrivit une musique de scène pour la nouvelle pièce de thé tre de son ami, intitulée Sigurd Jorsalfar (‘‘Sigurd, le croisé’’ ). La musique comporte huit pièces, dont deux chorals. En 1892, Grieg remaniait trois de ces pièces qu’il faisait publier un an après, sous forme de suite séparée, Op. 56. La première pièce, Prélude : dans le hall du roi (In The King’sHall) développe un thème solennel qui chemine vers des mélodies plus intimistes auxquelles les bois apportent une coloration nostalgique.
