An NCPA Presentation

Grieg: Holberg Suite

In this series of talks on Western classical music, Dr. Cavas Bilimoria takes listeners through musical concepts, the lives of composers and their famous works, interspersed with examples of recorded music. The first set of talks explores the Holberg Suite, a set of short pieces composed by Edvard Grieg to mark the 200th birth anniversary of noted Norwegian playwright Ludwig Holberg. Subtitled Suite in the Olden Style, the work flourishes in the Baroque style but is imbued with Romanticism. The great reception of the original piano version prompted Greig to adapt it for a string orchestra.

Entry free.
Admission on a first-come-first-served basis.
