Overview
Norway’s sense of national identity owes much to the work of Edvard Grieg and Geir Tveitt, both born and raised in Bergen. Leif Ove Andsnes dives deep into their contrasting sonatas before entering the boundless universe of Chopin’s Preludes. Leif Ove Andsnes returns with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra on 12 March.
