Nordic Sounds (2/4)

Nordic ensembles perform Tchaikovsky's Fifth Symphony, Grieg's Piano Concerto, with Leif Ove Andsnes, and Mahler's First Symphony.

Edward Gardner conducts the Bergen Philharmonic in Tchaikovsky's Fifth Symphony and Ørjan Matre's Lyric Pieces, a selection of short musical reflections on piano pieces by Edvard Grieg; then Leif Ove Andsnes plays Grieg's very own Piano Concerto in A minor with Concerto Copenhagen.
