Renaissance Research "Conservatory Project" Assignment On Contemporary Composition: Ibsen, Grieg, Sibelius, Thread Balls And Dry Leaves

Renaissance Research "Conservatory Project" Assignment On Contemporary Composition

Read Washington, D.C. musicologist Richard Freed's program note to this week's superb National Symphony Orchestra performance, under Vladimir Ashkenazy, of Edvard Grieg's complete incidental music, songs, and choruses to Henrik Ibsen's Peer Gynt. Read Peer Gynt, if you have not done so recently.
