The Romantic character piece for piano is crucial to a group of works in Edvard Grieg’s complete oeuvre. At the request of his publisher, the composer filled an entire 10 volumes with “Lyric Pieces,” a total of 66 individual works. The titles and characters of many pieces reflect the influence of the musical and literary folklore of Grieg’s Norwegian homeland. The experienced church musician Klaus Uwe Ludwig made a selection of the most appropriate pieces from the collection and adapted these for organ.
