🇳🇴Edvard Grieg ： From Mountain and Fjord No.2 Autumn Storm Op.44-2

“From Mountain and Fjord” No. 2, “Autumn Storm,” is a transcription that transforms imagery suggestive of nature’s changing moods into piano sonorities. The piece conveys a sense of tension and forward momentum reminiscent of wind and rain, and its appeal lies in the contrast between forceful, active passages and moments that relax as if surveying the landscape. In performance, it is important not to let the sound become rough through sheer momentum, but to balance each layer, including the inner voices. Use the pedal to support the resonance while avoiding muddiness, and bring out the changes in dynamics and the direction of each phrase so that nature’s expressive character comes vividly to life.
