Grieg: Lyric Pieces (Complete)

Edvard Grieg’s Lyric Pieces are short piano pieces—simple, direct, and full of color. Written across ten books, they feel like diary pages: scenes from nature, folk dances, quiet prayers, and memories. This video gathers the complete cycle, played by Italian pianist Angelo Martino, whose clear touch and natural flow let each piece speak. From Op. 12 to Op. 71, each piece lasts only a few minutes—perfect for reading, study, or a quiet evening. Martino keeps the sound warm and close, letting the music breathe and sing.
Open with the tender Arietta and the quick wings of Butterfly. Feel the drum and stomp of March of the Dwarfs, then the bright joy of Wedding Day at Troldhaugen. Between these moments lie dances, lullabies, and quiet snapshots of nature—music that smiles, thinks, and sighs without a single word.
Press play to drift through Grieg’s Norway—mountains, fjords, dances, and dreams—one intimate page at a time.
