Christian Grøvlen-Triptykon

Agathe Backer Grøndahl var en av Norges fremste kunstere, kjent som en fremragende pianist og komponist. På denne konserten får man oppleve hennes storartede, uttrykksfulle, sjarmerende og virtuose musikk .

Suite op. 40 av Edvard Grieg- Fra Holbergs tid, Suite i gammel stil Holberg-suiten ble skrevet til ære for Ludvig Holberg.Grieg har benyttet barokkens suitestil og formprinsipper for å gjenskape stemninger fra Holbergs tid, samtidig som han evner å la musikken gjennomsyres av sin egen personlige stil. Det har blitt hevdet at han fikk inspirasjonen til dette verket i Lofthus i Hardanger. Grieg skal spøkefullt ha omtalt suiten som et Parykkstykke

I tillegg Grøvlens egne komposisjon Triptykon
