Solvejgs Song, op. 55, Nr. 4

  • by Edvard Grieg from the
    "Peer Gynt Suite II"
    ca.: 3:50 Min.
    Grade 3
    Bearb: Achim Graf, Peter Welte

    Peer Gynt, the main figure of this Norwegian fairy tale of 1845, tries to escape his own non-profit as well as his reality with invented fantasies. The only one who believes him is his mother Aase. In search of love and adventure, he soon finds himself in the world of trolls and demons.

    He abducts the bride of another, but at the same time falls in love with Solvejg, who does not hear him at first. After about 30 years, meanwhile in Morocco, become rich by the slave trade, he is robbed by his dodgy business partners. Peer finds himself with his poverty and becomes faithful. In the Oasis of Anitra, he lives in an oasis, he believes to find his late fortune. This steals him, however, his last belongings which finally pushed him into the madhouse of Cairo. Completely impoverished, Peer Gynt returns home. He compares himself in his defeat with an onion, which has many shells but no nucleus.

    In the closing scene, however, Solvejg protects himself from peer and saves him. What Peer Gynt did not know, Solvejg waited her whole life for the return of her lover.
