About this piece
The flute and oboe theme that opens the first suite from Grieg's music to Ibsen's play "Peer Gynt", painting sunrise. It rises and falls inside a five-note scale.
The tune uses only five notes (E, D sharp, B, A... of the pentatonic scale); the left hand is our own simple accompaniment.
Why it is free to use
Edvard Grieg died in 1907, more than 70 years ago, and the piece dates from about 1875. This encoding is our own; no published edition was copied.
