Edvard Grieg
Norwegian Composer
(1843-1907)

Grieg attended Leipzig in his musical studies as well as Copenhagen, creating a personal inspiration for Norwegian national music. Grieg and his wife had a special relationship and would often perform recitals of his music together. Griegs best-known works include Peer Gynt and the majority of his piano concertos. Unlike many composers, Grieg became very popular during his lifetime and is still considered Norways greatest composer.
