Grieg Edvard - Lyric Pieces Op 38 Volume 2 Piano Solo

Grieg’s second book of Lyric Pieces was published 16 years after its predecessor, but immediately reprised the huge success of the former collection. Interestingly enough, the original title pages of the first books still make mention of “Little Pieces”.While the reference to simplicity and brevity still applies to Book One, in the second book it was already being questioned: the pieces here are longer, weightier and more technically demanding.
