Smooth. That's the best one-word description that I can think of for the Edvard Grieg piece that is YourClassical's
free download of the day (that may be a characteristic of all or most of Grieg's pieces--I am not a good enough student (yet) of classical music to know).
The piece is entitled
The First Meeting. It (the piece, not the meeting. ha) runs 3 minutes, 59 seconds long. The orchestra performing the piece is Capella Istropolitana, under the direction of conductor Adrian Leaper.
The Naxos album (2-CD set)
The Very Best of Grieg is the source of the piece. YourClassical links to a dedicated webpage from Naxos for the album. Here's
the URL.
The
free piece is formatted in MP3, as usual. You may download it from
this webpage. Look for the "Direct MP3 download link" link, and click on it. The download should begin immediately. Just interested in streaming the piece? There is also a stream bar at
that same webpage, that you can use to stream the piece to your heart's content.
Should you find the sentiment of Grieg's piece too syrupy, you might try finding a copy of Floyd Cramer's old piano hit
