Norwegian triumvirate triumphs at the Barbican
The final date in their recital tour brought the Norwegian soprano and pianist to London for a programme where Grieg outshone Strauss and Wagner.
Anna Grevelius/ Julius Drake
The programme had been changed. No Montsalvatge, but this gave space for a lovely performance of Grieg's varied and characterful Haugtussa (Maid of the Mountain) cycle. Both performers had clearly worked at it intently, and took us with great authority through its twists and turns. The Larsson songs must be some of the strangest lyrics ever set.
