    About this album

    Beecham’s Peer Gynt is a vivid, theatrical reading of Grieg’s music, balancing Nordic lyricism with bright orchestral colour and unmistakable drama. Best known through the suite, this 1958 recording draws on the incidental music written for Ibsen’s play, including cherished pieces such as Morning Mood and In the Hall of the Mountain King. Sir Thomas Beecham leads the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, the Beecham Choral Society and soprano Ilse Hollweg in a performance that helped keep Grieg’s concert music firmly in the popular repertory. Its blend of polish, sweep and character made it one of the most admired accounts of the work.
