| Description: Edvard Grieg's Holberg Suite, Op. 40 was composed in 1884 to celebrate the bicentenary of the birth of noted Norwegian playwirght and satirist Ludwig Holberg. Composed in the Baroque dance-suite style of Holberg's time, Holberg Suite stands today as one of the earliest examples of neo-classicism in the Romantic Era and has become a beloved standard in the string orchestra repertoire. |
