This may be true, but in sucha manner he takes his place in the Nordic lyric tradition, which has for over two hundred yearsresulted in innumerablemasterpieces in the more intimate genresof songs,piano piecesand chambermusic, especially violin sonatas. Grieg'spiano pieceshave justifiably becomepopular, anil if his songshave not achieved the samedegree of international recognitionthis is primarily on accountof the language barrier. He wrote about 150 songs,the vast majority of them to Norwegianwords. For his two earliestcollections (0p,2 and Op.4),however, he still choseGerman texts - and herewe find occasionalreminiscences of Schubertand Schumann. The reasonwhy Griegwrote so many songswas his lovefor his cousinNina Hagerup'In the 1860sshe had studiedwith the Danish singing teacherCarl Helstedt,and Grieg dedicatedthe SeftsDigte (SE Poems),0p.4 (1864-64)to his fianc6e;nevertheless, they are not love songs.An establishedsinger, she was the ideal interpreter of her husband'ssongs - but other composers,including FrederickDelius, also dedicatedsongs to her. Nina was to becomea major sourceof inspiration for Grieg throughouthis careeras a composer.They becameengaged in 1864,and nobodycould have receiveda finer engagementpresent than she:the third songfrom ldjertets Melodier (The Heart'sMelodies), Op.5 (1864-65t, ,/eg elskerdig (I LoveYou) - oneof Grieg'sbest-known songs, written in a correspondingrush of inspiration.For this group of songshe had chosenfour of Hans Christian Andersen'smost beautiful poems,and here for the first time he succeededin finding an individual melodic style. This was not realizedat the time: the music was printed by a publisherin Copenhagen,but at Grieg'sown expense. In many respectsthe Danishfairy-tale writer Andersenwas just the oppositeof the NorwegianHenrik Ibsen. Grieg brought them togetherby including poemsby both in his 0p,15group of songs(c. 1865);later on, Griegwas to useIbsen's Peer Gynt as the basisof his most familiar orchestralmusic. Grieg was to be inspired by Ibsen'spoetry on a further occasion,in spring 1976- this time not by its burlesqueaspects 0r its flights offantasy but by its austerityand seriousness- in the SexDigte (Six Poems)of 0p.25,En Suane(.4 Swan)has becomethe best-knownofthese short, autumnaltone pictures;in highly-charged 4 symboliclanguage the text relates how life's crises can onlv be overcomewith the aid of music. In summer 1894Grieg cameinto contactwith Nordahl Rolfsen'sLesebog (Reader) and was commissionedto set sevenof its shoft poemsto music.The intention was for the songs to be printed in the reader,but the composerbecame so inspired that the songsgrew in scaie and their emotionalrange exceeded what was foreseen.For this reasonGrieg also published them independentlyasBarnlige Sange (Children'sSongs), Op.61. In May 1895Arne Garborg'sHaugtussa, a collectionof 71 poems,was published.Grieg immediatelyread them at Troldhaugen,his home,and found that the poemswere 'already set to music - it was only a questionof writing them down'.As early as mid-Junehe was ready with twelve settingsof the poems,and in the next year he sketchedothers. He presumablyhad a more ambitiouscollection of songsin mind, becausehe delayed publication.When Haugtusso, Op.67,was finally printed in 1867,however, he had only approvedeight ofthe songs- but thesewere amongthe songswhich Griegregarded as his very best. He had enteredcompletely into the destiny of the visionary girl Ves1em6y.She was deepiyinfluenced by the landscapearound Jreren in the wild south-westof Norway. After being rejectedby her lover she attempts to flee from the reality of life by meansof contactwith nature and the powersof the underworld.Grieg was greatly affectedby the nature mysticismand composedthe songsin a stateof great inspiration - which resultedin someofGrieg's last songsalso being his very finest. Stig Jacobsson Monica Groop (b.1958)has in recentyears becomeone of Finland's most highly sought- after young singers.Following her successin the 1989Cardiff Singerof the World Competition,she has receivedmany invitations to perform internationally;since 1989she has sungas a soloistat the Finnish NationalOpera. Monica Groop received her singrng diplomafrom the SibeliusAcademy in 1985after studieswith Kerttu Metsiilii-Ignatiusand gaduated as a Doctorof Music the followingyear. She has appearedas a soloistwith many Finnish choirs and orchestrasand has performedat the SavonlinnaOpera Festival since 1986.She appears on two otherBIS records. Love Derwinger (b. 1966)studied the pianowith ProfessorGunnar Hallhagen in stockholm.He madehis d6but with Liszt'ssecond Piano concertoat the ageof 17 and has sincegiven concertsin many countrieson both sidesof the Atlantic. Love Derwingerhas appeaiedwith a number of leadingartists includingIngvar Wixell, Nicolai Ge-ddaand Manuela Wiesler.He has appearedin a concertbroadcast on BBC televisionwith HAkan Hardenbergerand christian Lindberg. He has formed a duo with RolandPdntinen. Love Derwingerappears on ten other BIS records. s wird hAufighelorgehoben, da8 Edvard Grieg im Kleinformatam wirkungvollsten war, und daBsogar sein weltberiihmtes Kauierkonzerl (BIS-CD-113, BIS-CD-619 in der 0riginalfassung)eigentlich aus einer PerlenreiheMiniaturen besteht.Vieileicht stimmt dies,aber dadurchsteht er auch an selbstverstiindlicherStelle in jener nordischen, lyrischenTtadition, die im Laufe von zweihundertJahren unzAhligeMeisterwerke des intimerenFormats schuf: Lieder, Klavierwerke und Kammermusik,vor allemViolinsonaten. Grieg wird zu Rechtwegen seiner Klavierstiicke geliebt, und wenn die Lieder nicht denselbeninternationalen Ruhm erlangt haben,hat dies wohl am ehestensprachliche Griinde.Er schriebetwas 150Lieder, von denendie meistenaufnorwegischer Lyrik bauen. Fiir seinefriihesten Hefte, Op.2und 4, wiihlte er abernoch deutsche Texte - und hier wird man nachwie vor manchmalan Schubertund Schumannerinnert. Der Grund dafur,da13 Grieg soviele Lieder schrieb,war, daBer sichin seineKusine Nina Hagerupverliebt hatte. Sie hatte in den 1860erJahren beim danischenGesangsptidagogen Carl Helstedtstudiert, und Grieg widmetedie SecftsGeilichte 0p,4 (1863-64)seiner Braut - aber es sind nochkeine Liebeslieder.Sie war eine anerkannteSdngerin, der ideale Interpret der Lieder ihres Gatten - aber auchbeispielsweise Frederick Delius widmeteihr eine Liedsammlung.Nina wurde wtihrendGriegs ganzer Karriere seinegroBe Inspirationsquelle.Sie verlobtensich 1864,und wer bekamdenn jemals ein schoneres Verlobungsgeschenkals sie: das dritte Lied aus Melodien des Herzens Op.5(1864-65), /cl liebeDich - einesder bekanntestenLieder Griegs,in einemzusammenhiingenden Rausch der Eingebungentstanden. Fiir dieseSammlung hatte er vier der allerschonstenGedichte H.C. Andersensausgesucht, und es gelangihm zum erstenmal,einen eigenenmelodischen Stil zu finden. Man verstandihn aber trotzdemnicht - die Noten wurden zwar von einem KopenhagenerVerlag gedruckt, aber auf Griegseigene Kosten. Der NorwegerHenrik Ibsenwar in vielemdas Gegenteildes danischen Miirchendichters Andersen.Bei Grieg mulStensie aber miteinanderzurechtkommen - die Lieder Op.15(um 1865)enthalten Texte von beiden,und spiiter schuf Grieg mit IbsensPeer Gynt setne bekanntesteOrchestermusik (I874-75).

  • Christianialiv
    Christianialiv Works from Norway’s Golden Age of wind music Christianialiv The Staff Band of the Norwegian Armed Forces The second half of the 19th century is often called the “Golden Age” of Norwegian music. The reason lies partly in the international reputations established by Johan Svendsen and Edvard Grieg, but it also lies in the fact that musical life in Norway, at a time of population growth and economic expansion, enjoyed a period of huge vitality and creativity, responding to a growing demand for music in every genre. The Staff Band of the Norwegian Armed Forces (to use its modern name) played a key role in this burgeoning musical life not just by performing music for all sections of society, but also by discovering and fostering musical talent in performers and composers. Johan Svendsen, Adolf Hansen, Ole Olsen and Alfred Evensen, whose music we hear on this album, can therefore be called part of the band’s history. Siste del av 1800-tallet er ofte blitt kalt «gullalderen» i norsk musikk. Det skyldes ikke bare Svendsens og Griegs internasjonale posisjon, men også det faktum at musikklivet i takt med befolkningsøkning og økonomiske oppgangstider gikk inn i en glansperiode med et sterkt behov for musikk i alle sjangre. I denne utviklingen spilte Forsvarets stabsmusikkorps en sentral rolle, ikke bare som formidler av musikkopplevelser til alle lag av befolkningen, men også som talentskole for utøvere og komponister. Johan Svendsen, Adolf Hansen, Ole Olsen og Alfred Evensen er derfor en del av korpsets egen musikkhistorie.

  • Hulda Garborg – 150 År
    Randi Arnestad Hulda Garborg – 150 år Denne teksten var først framført som eit kå- kurs og skilsmisse, måtte flytte med seri på Litteraturfest Røros i 2009, der mora til ein hybel på Hamar da ho var temaet var «Sterke kvinner». Den er her litt bare lita, mens dei eldre søstrene budde omarbeidd. med faren. Det var ei brutal sosial de- gradering, dei hadde dårlig råd og I Nord-Østerdalen var Hulda Garborg mora var mye sjuk, deprimert og etter- lenge eit kjent namn, ho budde her kvart alkoholisert. Det var ikkje lett å mye i lange periodar av livet, og har sett djupe spor etter seg. I år feirar vi at det er 150 år sia ho vart født, med nasjonale markeringar og biografiar. Men kan ei dame som var født langt nede på 1800- talet vere av interesse for oss i dag? Det ho framleis blir knytt til er arbeidet med bunader, med dans, og med teater. Og det skulle vel rekke som livsverk for eit enkelt menneske! Men Hulda er også mye meir enn det, biografen Arn- hild Skre kallar henne «nasjonal stra- teg», og meiner at Hulda fortener ein langt større plass i historia om det nye Norge enn det ho har fått. Og at Hulda Garborg var ei sterk kvinne ser vi av livs- verket hennes, og bare det at ho over- levde barndommen som eit heilt menneske, viser at her var det sterkt to. Tidlig biografi Ho vart født på ein storgard i Stange på Hedemarken, faren var jurist og mora Hulda på veg til barneball, i ny kjole, men med av «vanlig folk».

While the inspiration for much of his music rests in the hills and fjords, the folk tales and legends, and the pastoral settings of his native Norway and his melodic lines and unique harmonies bring to the mind of the listener pictures of that land, to restrict Grieg's music to the realm of nationalism requires one to ignore its international character. In tracing the various transitions in the development of Grieg's compositional style, one can discern the influences of his early training in Bergen, his four years at the Leipzig Conservatory, and his friendship with Norwegian nationalists - all intricately blended with his own harmonic inventiveness -- to produce music which is uniquely Griegian. Though his music and his performances were received with acclaim in the major concert venues of Europe, Grieg continued to pursue international recognition to repudiate the criticism that he was only a composer of Norwegian music. In conclusion, this thesis demonstrates that the international influence of this so-called Norwegian maestro had a profound influence on many other composers and was instrumental in the development of Impressionist harmonies.

  • Vadim Repin, Violin, with Andrei Korobeinikov, Piano Program Notes
    Vadim Repin, violin, with Andrei Korobeinikov, piano Program Notes Part: Fratres Born in Paide, September 11, 1935 In 1960, while still a student at the Talinn Conservatory, Arvo Pärt won national attention for his Nekrolog, dedicated to the victims of the Holocaust. It was the first work by an Estonian composer to use Schoenberg’s twelve-tone system so it created something of a scandal. The notoriety had its rewards, however, as it brought Pärt commissions from state sources and from cellist Rostropovich. Soon tired of his serial phase, Pärt began a series of alternations between creative output and withdrawal to search for a new style. One of his explorations came up with the collage technique, resulting in such compositions as his Collage on the Theme B-A-C-H (1964) and Second Symphony (1966). During the 1970s Pärt supported himself by writing some 50 film scores. His third symphony (1971) followed one of his “withdrawal” periods, in which he studied 14th – 15th century polyphony, from Machaut to Josquin. He followed another of his “creative silences” with For Alina (1976), a small piano piece of high and low extremes. Pärt said he reached a “new plateau” with this piece: “It was here that I discovered the triad series, which I made my simple, little guiding rule.” He has written in this triadic style, which he calls “tintinnabuli” (after the bell-like resemblance of notes in the triad), ever since, with only slight modifications. From 1982, when he moved to Berlin, he has composed primarily religious works for chorus or small vocal ensembles.

  • Nynorskforfattarar Reiser Heim Fire Garborg-Forteljingar – Fire Museum
    Nordic museology 2020 • 1, s. 57–74 Nynorskforfattarar reiser heim Fire Garborg-forteljingar – fire museum Oddmund L. Hoel Title: Authors writing in Nynorsk returning home. Four Garborg narratives – four museums Abstract: In 1924 the author Arne Garborg’s summer house Knudaheio in Time, Rogaland, was turned into an authentic house museum, at that time the fifth author museum in Norway and the third dedicated to an author writing in Nynorsk. Three more Garborg museums opened in 1951, 1996 and 2012, also including his wife, the author and cultural worker Hulda Garborg. This study compares the Garborg narratives developed and displayed in the four museums. Quite traditional narratives in the two oldest museums differ from the narratives in the two younger where stronger efforts are made to show the relevance of Arne and Hulda Garborg’s life and work today. The Garborg museums are used as a case to investigate what characterizes Nynorsk, and in more general, minority language author museums founded by cultural movements as tools in promoting a linguistic programme. Keywords: Arne Garborg, Hulda Garborg, Nynorsk, author museums, Knudaheio, Garborgheimen, Labråten, Garborgsenteret Den som ynskjer å vitje eit museum om for- seum både for ein mannleg og ein kvinneleg fattarane Arne og Hulda Garborg, kan velje forfattar.

First , the intrinsic value of what he has written, regardless of the language used; and, secondly, his position in the language movement in Norway. It is a recognized fact that Garborg is the greatest writer in Landsmaal and that Landsmaal would not be in the advanced place that it occupies today, had not Garborg defended it and written his masterpieces in it. I have therefore thought it essential to an understanding of Garborg's work to present a short discussion of Garborg's ideas on Landsmaal along with a brief analysis of the types of Landsmaal which he has used at various times.

    EDVARD GRIEG Recognizing the Importance of the Nationalist Composer on the International Stage IPA Transliteration of Three Song Cycles D.M.A. Document Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Caroline Patricia Bergan, M.M., A.D. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2020 D.M.A. Document Committee Dr. Scott McCoy, Advisor Dr. Youkyung Bae Prof. Edward Bak Prof. Loretta Robinson Copyright by Caroline Patricia Bergan 2020 Abstract In North American colleges, universities, and conservatories it is not uncommon to find the main languages required of music students to be French, Italian, German, and English. Beyond the scope of these four most common languages, Russian, Spanish, and Czech are sung by more advanced or native singers of the languages; however, many other languages seem to be ignored in academia in both solo performance as well as in choral settings. It is a disservice to limit the scope of languages and repertoire when there exists a plethora of rarely performed compositions; moreover, it is not reasonable for these institutions to limit student's learning because of this “tradition.” Among the overlooked are the Scandinavian languages. This document will specifically address the repertoire of the most renowned Norwegian composer of the nineteenth century, Edvard Grieg (1843-1907). There exist but two published works that provide a singer with the resources to learn the pronunciation of curated Grieg selections. Neither of these resources was written by native Norwegian speakers; therefore, utilizing my linguistic skills as a native speaker and singer I intend this document to be a contribution toward the goal of providing near-native, accurate International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) transliterations of three song cycles representing Grieg's early, middle, and late writing.
