Grieg Piano Concerto Op 16

Grieg piano concerto op. 16 Long deep fjord endlessly cutting into the country, calm is water, there are small green shelves where small farms claim their right to exist. At the end of the fjord, where the landscape is gentle, a village. Here generations worked and lived people of the soil and sea. A piece of a mountainside fell into the fjord and created a tsunami, village engulfed only a few survived, it took days before the world knew by then the water was calm and reflected the mountain and had no story to tell. The survivors didn’t flee their land but rebuilt it. They live enclosed by beauty yet know that paradise is not permanent but steadfastly tends their farms goats and cattle and stillness and beauty. Grieg´s piano concerto plays if unknown in their ears, the light, the dark, sudden disaster that makes up the souls of the people who live here.
