4.0 out of 5 stars AN EXCELLENT INTRODUCTION TO NORWAY'S GREATEST COMPOSER, May 18, 2000
By 
This review is from: The Best of Grieg (Audio CD)
When i first picked up this cd, i must say that i was somewhat dubious in doing so. 'It's just another Grieg collection', i was thinking to myself. However, this collection is more than this. It offers an excellent insight to Norway's greatest composer. Fine for anyone who wishes to find out more about this great composer.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best of Grieg, May 4, 2011
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Best of Grieg (Audio CD)
I ordered this CD after attending a recent concert by the Minnesota Orchestra which had performed some of the numbers that were on this CD, plus the CD had another number I had wanted, "The Wedding Day at Troldhaugen". The CD brought back good memories of a wonderful evening of Scandinavian music, aven though the numbers were played by different and various orchestras.
