Customer Reviews:
It's all here.......2006-04-14
Norwegian-born Edvard Grieg has created many works for the orchestra, and this 6-CD box set contains almost all of them. Neeme Jarvi handles the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra and the choirs very well. The sound is crystal clear and has the perfect digital sound for every CD player/stereo.
For the long works, the Piano Concerto is attention-grabbing and beautiful. The Symphonic Dances and the Norwegian Dances are lively and tremendously extraordinary. The lesser-known Symphony in C Minor should be more recognized, as it is as powerful as other symphonies, like Mahler's first and Beethoven's sixth. For the short works, In Autumn and Landkjenning can be best described as sheer masterpieces.
For Peer Gynt, it is good to hear the first digitally-recorded authentic version. The suite version is just not enough for that full listening experience. NOTE: if you want to buy a Peer Gynt that includes the complete dialogue, I would recommend conductor Ole Kristian Ruud's version with the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra; the dialogue lengthens the 90-minute work by two hours.
To know the rest is to listen to them straight through. All the works in this box set (especially the Piano Concerto) should be a possession for all Grieg-lovers.
A+
An excellent box-set.......2003-08-30
This box-set a must have for any Grieg lovers.
Neeme Jarvi is very good.
In first CD, there is a powerful performance of Piano Concerto by Zilberstein.She is also great in F.Liszt recordings (at DG Classics). In second CD, works for string orchestra (including, famous Holberg Suite) to be found. And in 3rd and 4th CDs, marvellous recordins of Peer Gynt and Sigurd Jorsalfar (Sigurd, the Crusader)to be found.This works are the first recordings of complete score. Still, speakers to be present at Peer Gynt.And Funeral March for R. Nordraak is very influence in 4th CD.The wind ensemble of Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra is very good...
In 5th CD, there is an unknown work by Grieg: Symphony in C-minor. This work written in early period, but didn't perfomed often. Still, this work's name is "Forbidden Symphony"...And then, a majestic work "Land-Sighting" to be found. This is very successful choral work of composer and he written in a heavenly tone:E Major...And then, there is an unknown work again, an incomplete opera: "Olav Trygvason"... Grieg written this work on a libretto by his friend, Bjornson (a famous poet of Norway), but he could finish first act...
And in last CD, there are other vocal works, and his beatiful work: "Old Norwegian Melody with Variations". And then, 5 Songs to be found. This songs originally written for voice and piano (like other many songs) but he later orchestrated these works.And the first song "The First Meeting" was discovered in 80's and still, they used a new edition, published from new founded manuscript, so this is the first recording of Grieg's beatiful song.
In other words: this box-set is excellent and Highly recommended.
Wonderful recordings, slightly marred by lack of texts.......2003-04-09
Jarvi has been a fine advocate of Scandinavian music over the last 30 years. Even of those such as Grieg and Sibelius who you would think no longer needed advocacy. Most of these recordings were warmly welcomed on their releases and several won awards. And it's nothing but a pleasure to see them reappear again. The orchestral playing is sumptuous, but the real stand out is the singing of Barbara Bonney on several CDs.
This is now the fourth or fifth release for some of these CDs, first came the individual volumes, then the full price box, then releases on budget DG Classikon, and now a Collector's Edition box at half the price, but sadly minus the texts to CDs 2,3 and 6. This won't matter so much in the orchestral songs, CD6, where the texts to Bergtekne, Bergliot etc. are available in other releases or on the Lieder web page, but CDs 2 and 3 are currently the only complete recording of Peer Gynt and the sung or spoken texts are not available outside sheet music collections. Personally (as someone more interested in the vocal music than the orchestral) I would try and locate the original volumes, but at least DG has given those who don't feel the extra expense is justified a cheaper option.
Further recommendation: Anne Sofie von Otter's recording of the Haugtussa song cycle.

Customer Reviews:
Classical Jukebox Vol I - A Vintage Oldie!.......2000-12-13
Many of the same pieces on this CD were recorded on a vintage LP vinyl album of the late 1960s, entitled "More Greatest Hits" by Eugene Ormandy and the Philadelphia Orchestra. But the CD is even better; the recordings originally may have been analog, but there are more of them. The choice of music and quality is typically Ormandy -- outstanding. Young music lovers just beginning to explore the classical repertoire will especially appreciate this CD. I highly recommend it.
J'AI UN FAIBLE POUR ORMANDY.......2000-02-13
I confess to having a soft spot for Eugene Ormandy. The programme on this compilation CD is most varied, it goes all the way from HUNGARIAN DANCE NO. 5 by Brahms to the SUNRISE THEME by R. Strauss. The sound is pure Ormandy, crisp and clean, the tempos are always measured and well executed. The recorded sound is beautiful. Only one reservation - the short pieces leave one wishing for more of the same. Someone please inform me when the Sony people put Ormandy's rendition of MOTU PERPETUO by Paganini on CD...
Average customer rating:
- Generous program, mixed quality
- These are excellent performances and a great value
- Beautiful Music, but Terrible Recording Quality
- Pleasant anthology
- A best Buy!

Customer Reviews:
Generous program, mixed quality .......2007-02-09
I'd give it 3 1/2 if I could.
As usual Vox provides two generously filled CDs of music at a bargain price. In addition to the often recorded Peer Gynt Suites and Holberg Suite for string orchestra you get the less frequently recorded sets of Nowegian and Symphonic Dances and the symphonic overture "In Autumn" and much more. Lots of great Grieg here but for a Vox issue this set is a bit disappointing.
First the audio: the whole affair is mixed very quietly. I have to crank this up to the max to hear the quiet passages and even the louder climaxes don't pack the power that they should.
The performances? Well they're actually quite good. Abravenel clearly has an affection for this music and the ensemble and solo playing from the members of the Utah Symphony and Utah Chamber Symphony is very clean and precise if not always as exciting or powerful as it should be ("In the Hall of the Mountain King" and "March of the Dwarfs"). Also at times it sounds as if the arrangements have been simplified to accomodate the smaller fources of the Utah organization.
All an all a nice introduction to these works and a pleasant listen. Also at this price it's an inexpensive way to hear some Grieg beyond the Peer Gynt Suites and the Piano Concerto. But this is clearly not in the same league as Von Karajan and the Berlin Philharmonic ("Peer Gynt", "Sigurd Jorsalfar") or Neeme Jarvi conducting the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra ("Norwegian Dances", "Symphonic Dances", "In Autumn"), all on Deutsche Grammophon.
These are excellent performances and a great value.......2006-11-04
Unlike the other reviewer, I found absolutely nothing wrong with the VOX discs or the sound quality. As for the performances, quite honestly, I am selling my Blomstedt/SF Symphony 'Peer Gynt' suites. I like Abravanel and the Utah band much better. If you have any interest in the orchestral music of Grieg, you can't do better than this!
Beautiful Music, but Terrible Recording Quality.......2005-05-19
This is my second attempt to obtain a playable copy of this 2 CD set. Maurice Abravenel and the Utah Symphony did a good job of interpeting this fantastic music, but VOX did not do their part. The first set of CD's bombed shortly after starting CD no. 1. I notified Amazon and they promptly sent me a second sealed set. The first time through was okay, but on the third playing, CD no. 1 again failed. It is not playable. However, CD no. 2 appears to be okay. I feel saddened for Mistro Abravenel and the Utah Symphony that their efforts were not matched by the quality of the reproduction.
Pleasant anthology.......2000-12-28
I can't muster as much enthusiasm as the previous reviewer, but I certainly appreciate this set.
Utah has always been a smaller orchestra, sometimes augmented (such as the excellent Mahler 8 on Vanguard), and of course that means fewer strings. With close microphone placement, that aspect is brought out here. While the playing is very good, it is not the best technically--witness some pretty out of tune playing in the Peer Gynt Suite #1, "Morning Mood" in the wicked arpeggiated figures, and the concertmaster is made to sound pretty scrawny in the last movement of Holberg (another solo that never seems to sound idiomatic to my ears). A note, however--the violas sound very nice--full, warm tone and no squwaks!
What is excellent however are most of the performances--another case of lovely performances, if not as polished as others. For example, looking at some other recordings of the Peer Gynt Suites, von Karajan's last essay on DG seems really sterile to me--and consequently very boring, although it is hard to beat the Berlin Phil. Slatkin, on the other hand, has more feeling, but for once, the Telarc engineering seems a little off--but the technical polish of the St. Louis forces can't be missed. Blomstedt w/ San Francisco on Decca has decent engineering, but his orchestra, which plays very well, can't match St. Louis or Berlin in the string tone departments, but does outshine Utah.
One disappointment on this album is the "In Autumn Overture". I think it needs a little more dramatic advocacy, and perhaps a little more technical polish. On the other hand, good luck finding many other recordings of it!
So, this album represents a great way to get all of Grieg's works for orchestra, even if there are a few defects (some technical blemishes and too-close engineering)--none of which should bar the potential buyer.
A best Buy!.......2000-01-19
This budget-priced Album set, contains some very fine performances. Abravanel is a dedicated Grieg interpreter, and his approach is both complementary and shrewdly highlighted in this collection. This performance has long been regarded as the best available. Abravanel elected the kind of Romantic, colorful music that he always conducted with special authority, and the Utah Symphony Orchestra makes some gorgeous sounds, particularly in the Peer Gynt Suite and The Lyric Suite. A bargain.
