Grieg Although. a Norwegian by birth, Baron Ludvig Holberg’ (1684-1754) in whose honour this Suite is named, did most of hi8 important literary and dramatic work for Denmark, and is regarded as the real founder of Danish literature. When Holberg arrived in Denmark in 1717, Danish could hardly be called a written language at all. That one man raised the language to a place of.front rank importance in the world’s ‘literature; is an achievement for which we have far to seek if we would find’ a parallel. Grieg’s Suite has no relation to Holberg except the composer’s veneration, and: the fact that it is written in an old-fashioned style. 8.16 Recordings: .- Povla Frijsh (soprano), "Med En Vandlilje" (The "Water Edy) Fits. a .
