Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra Ole Kristian Ruud, conductor. With this, the sixth, instalment the turn has come to the Peer Gynt Suites, possibly the best-loved of all Grieg's orchestral music. It is anyway a fact that the instant popularity of Morning Mood, In the Hall of the Mountain King and Solveig's Song has contributed to Ibsen's drama becoming one of the most widely played. The music that makes up the Suites has already been released in the series as part of the 2-disc set BIS-SACD-1441/42 which consists of a concert version of the play, including the complete incidental music as well as excerpts from the spoken text. One of these is Bell Ringing, which for a long time used to open the Bergen Festival, and in which Grieg is at his most forward-looking, exploring harmonic innovations and effects that were to be used by the impressionists.

Ole Kristian Ruud knows the music about as well as anyone alive, and it goes without saying that the orchestra does too. There are some wonderful things here, including an effortless, surging Morning Mood and one of the best accelerandos on disc during In the Hall of the Mountain King. The Funeral March is unusually powerful for a composer of Grieg’s generally gentle mien, particularly here in its original wind band scoring. As in all of the most recent SACDs from this source, BIS’s engineering produces eminently natural, sumptuous results in all formats. Reference Recording: Peer Gynt Suites: Blomstedt (Decca).

Although not all Ole Kristian Ruud and the Bergen Philharmonic's recordings of the orchestral music of Grieg have been entirely successful - their disc of the string orchestra works was restrained to the point of sedated, hardly a characteristic of Grieg's music - this disc of Grieg's supremely well-known Peer Gynt Suites coupled with three far. less-well-known works is a wonder and a marvel. In their amazingly evocative Peer Gynt Suites, Ruud and the Bergen bring out colors, textures, and rhythmic accents that few others have suspected were even there.
