Composed in 1868. One year later Franz Liszt received this beautiful composition to play through, and suggested some changes which Grieg initially wrote in, and then partly removed because people found it too warlike. Nowdays it’s one of the most well loved piano concertos. The last part is the most interesting. Harsh accordian and characteristic Norwegian rhythms.
