Music Reviews of Grieg: Peer GyntMusic Review: Grieg: Peer Gynt Incidental Music Rating: 5 Stars
I had not bought the incidental music to Peer Gynt previously because I had heard it so often, thought I knew each piece by heart, and felt there was nothing new under the sun. Then I heard this CD one morning played by Rome Radio and immediately knew I had been wrong. The sound is of superior quality and the orchestra and voices oblige you to listen just as Glen Gould obliged me to listen to his renditions of Bach. I can recommend it without reservation.
Music Review: Passionate Rating: 4 Stars
The story line gives the listener a guide to follow the music, but the score leaves out the connections for the listener to only imagine the performance. The music is passionate and descriptive and introduces the listener to the singing voices of parts of the presentation that are left out in the "Suite." I appreciate hearing it over and over.
Music Review: A Wonderful Recording Rating: 5 Stars
It's the best. The quality of the recording, the completeness. I don't like to listen to it casually when I am doing something else; it is so involving, I like to give it my full attention.
