On Wings of Song
(An excerpt from Grieg's "Air" heard on Greg's CD "On Wings of Song")
Top 10 Reasons to Buy “On Wings of Song”
- 10) 72 minutes of memorable classical piano music.
- 9) Mendelssohn’s “On Wings of Song” is just so pretty.
- 8) The “Norma Thriller.” Many classical musicians today don’t care much for this over-the-top composition by Liszt (the climax lasts a full 7 minutes!), but Greg loves it. Buy the CD and assess the piece for yourself.
- 7) The plastic wrap, the bar code, the aesthetically pleasing packaging!
- 6) “The Gallows” from Ravel’s Gaspard de la nuit will give you the chills.
- 5) To support Greg.
- 4) To discover Grieg’s “Air” for yourself. It’s such an intimate and personal piece that Greg actually refrains from commenting.
- 3) To listen to Greg’s transcription of “Erbarme Dich” from the Saint Matthew Passion.
- 2) It makes a wonderful Christmas gift.
- 1) To understand why Greg would ask his listeners to: “immerse yourself in the devil’s world of hedonistic hallucination.”
