 Grieg - Lyric Pieces - RadioDirectory.com
While Grieg's Piano Concerto in A minor is known the world over (Andsnes has made a celebrated recording) these highly expressive pieces span virtually the length of the composer's career, revealing a poetic sensibility midway between Chopin and Debussy.

In so far as Grieg drew inspiration from his native folk music, the pieces illustrate a benign nationalism, and in the same way Andsnes carries the expectation of being a "Norwegian" artist with a refined musicality, refusing to unnecessarily romanticise what is in the main simple, lyrical music.
