Lyric Pieces (Norwegian: Lyriske stykker) is a collection of 66 short pieces for solo piano written by Edvard Grieg.
They were published in 10 volumes, from 1867 (Op. 12) to 1901 (Op. 71).
The collection includes several of his best known pieces, such as
Wedding Day at Troldhaugen (Bryllupsdag på Troldhaugen),
To Spring (Til våren),
March of the Trolls (Trolltog), and
Butterfly (Sommerfugl).
This is an arrangement of Lyric Pieces Op.54 No.3 Trolltog.
Allegro moderato (D minor) K/a March of the dwarfs or trolls/ Marche des nains / Zug der Zwerge
Grieg later arranged four of the pieces from Op.54 as his Lyric Suite for orchestra.
Grieg slightly altered the order of the numbers in the orchestral suite by swapping No. 4 Notturno with No. 3 March of the Dwarfs. The final order of this is:
1. Shepherd Boy
2. Norwegian March
3. Notturno (originally No. 4)
4. March of the Dwarfs (originally No. 3).
I have arranged many of Grieg's Lyric pieces for wind quintet, You can find them on this site.
