Edvard Grieg : Peer Gynt Suites - Version for Piano Four-Hands

Piano Duet (1 Piano, 4 Hands) – Romantic Period

Description:

Grieg's incidental music for Henrik Ibsen's drama “Peer Gynt” contains some of his best-known compositions, such as “Morning Mood” and “In the Hall of the Mountain King”. Grieg later extracted the most beautiful pieces to form two orchestral suites and arranged these versions for piano four-hands himself. This G. Henle Urtext edition offers this authoritative arrangement. There was a surprise in store for us when we were preparing our Urtext edition. In the autograph and the first print run, the second suite contained another movement, the “Dance of the Mountain King's Daughter”, which Grieg deleted shortly afterwards. This charming dance appears in the appendix to our edition – printed again for the first time in 120 years! The Norwegian pianist and Grieg expert Einar Steen-Nøkleberg was co-editor for our edition and also provided the new fingerings.

Product Features:

• Composer's Own Arrangement: This is Grieg's own creative arrangement of his famous orchestral suites for piano four-hands.
• Urtext Authenticity: The edition is based on a meticulous review of Grieg's autographs and first prints, ensuring scholarly accuracy.
• Bonus Movement Included: Features the deleted movement, the “Dance of the Mountain King's Daughter”, printed in the appendix for the first time in 120 years.
• Expert Fingering: Includes fingerings by Einar Steen-Nøkleberg, a recognized Grieg specialist.

Performance Tips:

These four dances demand a robust and energetic performance, capturing the powerful rhythm and character of Norwegian folk music. Duo pianists must focus on precise coordination, especially in the swift, syncopated sections. The music requires a wide range of dynamics and articulation, utilizing sharp accents to convey the dance’s spirit. The performance should balance the famous lyrical moments, such as "Morning Mood" and "Solvejg's Song," with the aggressive and dramatic character of "In the Hall of the Mountain King."

About the Composer & Editors:

Edvard Grieg (1843–1907) was the most important Norwegian composer of the nineteenth century and a great promoter of Norwegian folk music. His lyrical character pieces and dances are extremely well known. The editing team includes Ernst-Günter Heinemann (Editor), a distinguished musicologist, and Einar Steen-Nøkleberg (Editor and Fingering), a renowned Norwegian pianist and Grieg specialist.

愛德華・葛利格 : 《皮爾金》組曲 – 鋼琴四手聯彈版

鋼琴四手聯彈（單鋼琴）– 浪漫時期

簡介:

葛利格為亨利克·易卜生戲劇《皮爾金》創作的配樂，包含了「晨歌」和「在山魔王的宮殿中」等他最著名的作品。葛利格後來從中挑選出最優美的樂曲，組成了兩套管弦樂組曲，並親自將這些版本改編為鋼琴四手聯彈。這份G. Henle原典版提供了這份權威性的改編樂譜。我們在準備原典版時發現了一個驚喜：在手稿和初版印刷中，第二組曲包含了另一個樂章，即「山魔王女兒之舞」，葛利格不久後將其刪除。這支迷人的舞曲出現在本版的附錄中——這是120年來首次重新印刷！挪威鋼琴家和葛利格專家艾納爾·斯汀-諾克勒貝里（Einar Steen-Nøkleberg）擔任共同編輯，同時也提供了新的指法。

產品特點:

• 原作者親自改編: 這是葛利格將其著名的管弦樂組曲改編為鋼琴四手聯彈的版本，具有權威性。
• 原典版準確性: 樂譜基於對葛利格手稿和初版印刷品的審核，確保了學術上的準確性。
• 額外樂章收錄: 附錄中收錄了被刪除的樂章「山魔王女兒之舞」，這是120年來首次重新印刷。
• 專家指法: 包含由葛利格專家艾納爾·斯汀-諾克勒貝里提供的指法，為演奏提供了實用的指導。

演奏提示:

這四首舞曲要求演奏者展現出堅實而充滿活力的表演，捕捉挪威民間音樂的強烈節奏和特質。二重奏鋼琴家必須專注於精確的協調，尤其是在快速、切分音的樂段中。演奏應平衡著名的抒情樂章（如「晨歌」、「索爾維格之歌」）與「在山魔王的宮殿中」的狂暴戲劇性。葛利格專家提供的指法對於慣用性地駕馭技術樂段至關重要。

作曲家與編者介紹:

愛德華・葛利格（Edvard Grieg, 1843–1907）是19世紀最重要的挪威作曲家，也是挪威民謠音樂的偉大推動者。他的抒情小品和舞曲非常有名。編訂團隊包括恩斯特-京特爾・海涅曼（Ernst-Günter Heinemann）（編者）和艾納爾·斯汀-諾克勒貝里（編者和指法），後者是著名的挪威鋼琴家和葛利格專家。
