Edvard Grieg 
Lyric Pieces 
Op. 12, Op. 38, Op. 43: for Piano

Grieg’s ’Lyric Pieces’ are among the most popular piano pieces ever written. Works such as ’Papillon’, ’Fairy-Dance’ and ’To Spring’ have become ’cult pieces’ in the repertoire of domestic music-making. It is a delightful challenge for the modern performer to realize the delicate musical balance between a simple folk tradition and the Romantic urge of expressiveness.
