Sonata in F Major, Op.8, for violin and piano; Edvard Grieg (Henle)

Grieg's first Violin Sonata breathes youthful freshness and captivates with its Norwegian folk style. In terms of technique, it makes far fewer demands than Grieg's later violin sonatas and is thus also ideally suited for instructional use. Henning Kraggerud, an outstanding authority on Grieg's music, has provided the violin fingerings.
