Info zu Veslemøy synsk

Edvard Grieg (1843-1907) the national romantic and Olav Anton Thommessen (1946-) the modernist come together here in the tale of 'Haugtussa' and her life, her love and her path through the Underworld to redemption. The story of Veslemøy - or Haugtussa - has literary parallels to Dante's 'Divina Commedia' and Pushkin's 'Eugene Onegin', and is one of the greatest works of Norwegian literature. Thommessen has helped himself to many of Grieg's compositions: From 'Norwegian Folk Songs', 'Peasant Dances', his chamber music and several of the lyrical pieces; adapting it, extending it, deleting it and following it through in a way that contribute to the scope of Garborg's poetry. Thommessen's musical collage is given an intense and gripping performance by Marianne Beate Kielland and Nils Anders Mortensen.

'This work is based on Edvard Grieg’s music composed for lyrics by the Norwegian author and lyricist, Arne Garborg. Grieg did not finish this music and Thommessen has taken the liberty of finishing it for him as he says.'
