Edvard Grieg (1843 - 1907) Holberg Suite in full for String Orchestra, written in 1884. Audio with full score video.

This piece was originally written as a piano work with the subtitle “Suite in the olden style” but was rearranged for string orchestra a year later by the composer himself. Grieg composed it in 1884 for the 200th anniversary of the birth of the playwright Ludvig Holberg, and it now remains one of the best examples of neoclassical music written, using the baroque Dance Suite format in a brisk, late-romantic style.
