The celebratory character is explored through the tonality, the articulation, the tempo, the repeated rhythmic patterns, and the spirited melodic design. The main thematic contrasts are explained with the much more reflective central section expressed through a slower tempo, a legato approach, lower dynamics and the intimacy of a melodic conversation between the hands, perhaps designed to represent husband and wife in dialogue. This composer insights lesson draws out some of Grieg’s key stylistic characteristics and illustrates how to paint a musical picture of an evocative title.\n
