Composed by Edvard Grieg. Arranged by Ray Thompson. 20th Century,Chamber,Romantic Period. 10 pages. RayThompsonMusic #896485. Published by RayThompsonMusic (A0.1307228).Two Elegiac Melodies, Op. 34, is a composition in two movements for string orchestra by Edvard Grieg, completed in 1880 and first published in 1881.
The two movements are instrumental arrangements Grieg made of two of his 12 Melodies, Op. 33, published in 1880: these were settings for voice and piano of words by the Norwegian poet and journalist Aasmund Olavsson Vinje.
The Two Elegiac Melodies were dedicated to Heinrich von Herzogenberg.
Grieg also made an arrangement for solo piano.
This arrangement is of No.1 - Hjertesår (The Wounded Heart or sometimes called Heart's Wounds/Heart's ease)
Vinje's words, from Grieg's Op. 33 No. 3, relate that wounds have been suffered by the heart in the struggles of life, but it has survived; faith is not destroyed.
It is arranged for standard wind quintet.
