Edvard Grieg's Solveig's Song

If I had to choose my favorite piece of music for the human voice, it would undoubtebly be Solveig's Song from Grieg's "Peer Gynt". It's in the deceptive simplicity of the piece where lies the beauty. But, strangely enough, of all the versions available there is not one which seems to be the ultimate version. Even Lucia Popp's version, good as it is, is lacking something. The present recording doesn't feature any singers at all, replacing the singer with violins. It remains my favorite version of this song, as it somehow manages to capture each strand of Solveig's sorrow. I hope you will enjoy this :-)! P.S. If possible, I would be quite interested in learning your favorite renditions of this song ;-)!

@eshnic you´re cool ;) i love System of a Down too but also enjoy hearing or singing classical songs so you´re absolutly right that it´s possible to listen to several kinds of music and why not?"

My beloved Grandmother used to play this on her Piano. Sitting there, as a young boy, observing and enjoying, is hard to describe. And then there came the song of the Trolls in the Mountain... Oh Boy. She was Norwegian, just a bit younger than her countryman, Edward Grieg.

This is very good but my favourite version is with Sakari Oramo conducting The City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra (Birmingham being in the UK, not Alabama! :) )

aparently the soundtrack of childs play 3 has this song in it but i find it most unlikely due to the calmness...

Check out Forever by Kamelot. It is an awsome song and uses this as a part of the melody. :)
