🇳🇴Edvard Grieg ： Norwegian Folk Songs No.17 Op.66-17

This is the seventeenth piece in Grieg’s piano arrangements of Norwegian folk songs, Op. 66. Centered on the folk melody’s natural simplicity, it adds the harmonic color and wider range of the piano, allowing a brief piece to reveal both lyricism and finely shaded expression. Listening closely to the relationship between melody and accompaniment makes it easier to follow the connections between phrases and the work’s overall coherence. In performance, the melody should first be shaped with natural breathing, while the inner voices and accompaniment remain discreet. Avoid rushing the ends of phrases, and let the resonance of the notes speak, carefully balancing rustic simplicity with refinement.
