Grieg’s incidental music to Henrik Ibsen’s play became his most popular work, premiering in 1876 along with the play. Aase’s death is an elegy depicting the death of Peer Gynt’s mother dying alone on a mountain. It is simple and powerful. 

Ed Hayes and Frank Harmantas have score this work for 5-part Trombone Ensemble. This 4-minute work is playable by moderately advanced performers except the top part which goes up to a couple high d’s and need some endurance.

Edward MacDowell (1860–1908), although rather unknown in Germany, ranks among the most important musicians of North America on the threshold of the 20th century. He received his musical training in Paris, Stuttgart, Wiesbaden and Frankfurt. In 1888 MacDowell returned to the USA where he was celebrated as a pianist and composer, as 'the greatest musical genius America has produced'. Influenced by the works of Schumann and Grieg, his 3 Poems display a mature romantic sound image. The pieces for four hands live on their strong expression while being soft, sensitive and subtle in the detail. The gentle tones reflect MacDowell's love of nature, especially of the clouds and the sea, with 3 Poems beginning with the movement Night by the Sea. The pieces are ideal for lessons, recitals and concert performances.

María Teresa Gertrudis de Jesús Carreño García (December 22, 1853 – June 12, 1917) was a Venezuelan pianist, soprano, composer, and conductor. Over the course of her 54-year concert career, she became an internationally renowned virtuoso pianist and was often referred to as the Valkyrie of the Piano. Carreño was an early adopter of the works of one of her students, American composer and pianist Edward MacDowell (1860–1908) and premiered several of his compositions across the globe. She also frequently performed the works of Norwegian composer and pianist Edvard Grieg (1843–1907). Carreño composed approximately 75 works for solo piano, voice and piano, choir and orchestra, and instrumental ensemble. Several composers dedicated their compositions to Carreño, including Amy Beach (Piano Concerto in C-sharp minor) and Edward MacDowell (Piano Concerto No. 2).

This lovely lullaby ('The Sleeping Child') dates from 1872 and was originally for solo piano but arranged for concert band as part of an ongoing project to bring more works into the repertoire by women composers. #arrangemegoals2023.
