EDVARD GREIG
Grieg: Chasing The Butterfly - recreating Grieg's 1903 recordings and beyond
Sigurd Slattebrekk (piano) /Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra, Michail Jurowski
[ Simax / 2 CD ]
Release Date: Monday 31 January 2011
"Here on this handsomely presented and generously illustrated two-disc album is a true labour of love. Inspired by Edvard Grieg's own playing, recorded in Paris in 1903, native Norwegian Sigurd Slåttebrekk and his "creative director" Tony Harrison seek to recreate a bygone performance style and tradition. Played on Grieg's 1892 Steinway in Troldhaugen, these performances are of a moving poetic empathy and musical devotion." (Gramophone)
