Edvard Grieg: Peer Gynt Suite No.1.


The piece is an introduction to the fourth act of Ibsen's drama. The action of the scene takes place in Africa, but Grieg's sunrise (considered one of the most beautiful in music) has a Scandinavian flavor.

This is one of the musics I hear very often - I really like it very much . . . . 🥰

Funny that this thread resurrected. Back when it was originally posted, I checked out Jeff Buckley and for some reason it led me to discover Mike Farris and his cover of "Mercy Now" which is quite powerful:

My father could use a little mercy now
The fruits of his labor fall and rot slowly on the ground
His work is almost over it won't be long, he won't be around
I love my father, he could use some mercy now
My brother could use a little mercy now
He's a stranger to freedom, he's shackled to his fear and his doubt
The pain that he lives in it's almost more than living will allow
I love my brother, he could use some mercy now
My church and my country could use a little mercy now
As they sink into a poisoned pit it's going to take forever to climb out
They carry the weight of the faithful who follow them down
I love my church and country, they could use some mercy now
Every living thing could use a little mercy now
Only the hand of grace can end the race towards another mushroom cloud
People in power, they'll do anything to keep their crown
I love life and life itself could use some mercy now
Yeah, we all could use a little mercy now
I know we don't deserve it but we need it anyhow
We hang in the balance dangle 'tween hell and hallowed ground
And every single one of us could use some mercy now
Every single one of us could use some mercy now
Every single one of us could use some mercy now
