🇳🇴Edvard Grieg ： Piano Sonata e-moll Op.7

This four-movement sonata sets powerful momentum against lyrical melodies in vivid contrast. The first movement is especially compelling for its tense themes and the energy of its fluid development. In the second movement, the long-breathed melodic lines should be supported with care, while the dance-like character of the third calls for light articulation and a clear sense of pulse. The finale demands vitality and virtuosity; rather than pursuing speed alone, performers should clarify the movement of each voice and the changes in harmony so that the work’s overall architecture comes through. A wide dynamic range and careful voicing that allows the melody to emerge from inner parts or the left hand are also essential.
