Grieg - The Sound Of The North - Desguin String Quartet, Florestan Bataillie & Lucas Van

Do you know what Grieg is crazy about? The rain. He is lucky, because where he comes from it rains more than 200 days a year. The land of fjords and fjelds. The land that he loves so intensely and that he always leaves with a heavy heart: Norway. Grieg succeeded in giving that land a voice. From the enchanting 'Morning Mood' to the roaring 'In the Hall of the Mountain King'. From his masterful piano concerto to his brilliant string quartet. From his subtle lyrical pieces for piano to folkloric-sounding violin sonatas. How that North inspires him exactly and how the man manages to develop a national sound, you will hear from actor Lucas Van den Eynde, the Desguin Strijkkwartet and pianist Florestan Bataillie. You will hear Grieg's hits and blockbusters, but you will also get to know lesser-known work. You will learn about his successes and triumphs, but also about his insecurities and doubts. Grieg thus becomes a man of flesh and blood again, who stands on stage among his music. A performance that manages to touch both young and less young. In collaboration with Wilde Westen.
