"Morning" from Peer Gynt Suite No. 1, op. 46 (1875) by Edvard Grieg (1843-1907)
This clip of "'Morning' from Peer Gynt Suite No. 1, op. 46" from the one-hour special "Rick Steves' Europe: A Symphonic Journey," celebrates the unique cultural identity of Norwegians — the folk songs, traditional customs, and awesome beauty of their native land. "Morning" calls up images of a sunrise over a majestic fjord. Fluttering woodwinds set a peaceful mood. Then comes that memorable flute melody, suggesting the rising sun and chirping birds, as the world awakes and warms on a pristine morn.
In "Rick Steves' Europe: A Symphonic Journey" Rick teams up with the Cascade Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Michael Miropolsky, on a musical tour that begins in the USA, then touches down in seven different European countries. The result is a performance that combines Europe's most stirring Romantic-era anthems with beautiful high-definition cinematography and Rick's insights into European history.
