Grieg’s most perfectly formed music is contained in the 60-plus Lyric Pieces for piano, which he composed over many years and published in several separate sets. Justifiably popular, they are exquisite miniatures, and one of the best is “Wedding Day at Troldhaugen”. Troldhaugen (“Troll’s Home”) is the name Grieg gave to the house he had built at Bergen for himself and his family, and so far as we know he never celebrated a wedding there. But he did celebrate his silver wedding anniversary shortly after it was built.

This arrangement for orchestra was made by an early 20th century composer and arranger with the splendid name of Theodore Moses Tobani.
