Short intro

Ole Kristian Ruud's distinguished series of recordings of the orchestral works of Grieg is augmented here with a disc containing the opera fragment Olav Trygvason, the dramatic scene At the Cloister Gate, plus seven songs for orchestra. With the participation of four different vocal soloists, three different choirs, and the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra, Ruud turns in wholly idiomatic, enormously effective, and hugely enjoyable performances of mostly little-known Grieg. The three extended scenes from Olav contain the most impressive music here, music full of the dramatic fury yet formally. Olav Trygvason, Opera Fragment. Six Songs With Orchestra.

The recording, conducted by Ole Kristian Ruud, has an almost shocking vividness: the playing and choral singing are wonderfully ferocious Ingebjorg Kosmo is the very manic Prophetess. The 1895 Orchestral Songs, which form the coupling, have been better served elsewhere, however. Ruud's conducting is supple and finely nuanced, but Marita Solberg's chilly-sounding soprano won't, by any means, be to everyone's taste. Classical music. Edvard Grieg. Reuse this content.
