Schott Music Best of Grieg

Schott Music Best of Grieg – Only the Best for Piano

With Best of Grieg, Schott Music presents a carefully curated selection of the most beautiful piano works by the Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg. The edition brings together 30 popular pieces and offers pianists a varied insight into the work of one of the most significant figures of the Romantic era.

The collection is aimed particularly at advanced beginners and intermediate players. In addition to selected original compositions , the sheet music book contains medium-difficulty arrangements that make Grieg’s characteristic musical language accessible without losing any of its musical expression. From lyrical melodies to spirited Nordic soundscapes, this collection offers a varied repertoire for lessons, concerts and playing at home.

Practical fingering suggestions ensure additional learning success by making it easier to master the pieces. Supplementary metronome recommendations also support structured preparation and help to find the right tempo for each composition.
