Album Notes
Edvard Grieg's 'Lyric Pieces' are like little vacations, breaths of northern air that seem forever fresh and immediate. From the quicksilvery "Butterfly" or the torch-carrying "Melody" to the joyous gushing of "Wedding Day at Troldhagen," these folk-influenced miniatures have long delighted players and listeners; but only a few great pianists, most notably Walter Gieseking and Emil Gilels, have taken up their cause in earnest. Now Mikhail Pletnev joins their ranks with a well-selected baker's dozen, in which he reveals considerable charm alongside the technical brilliance and cool control for which he is so well known. That command is put to further good use in the early Piano Sonata Op. 7 as well as the rarely-heard Seven Fugues of Grieg's student years, among the few unpublished works of his which were not destroyed or suppressed: they would make excellent material for a game of "Hey smart guy, who wrote this?".
