Grieg wrote an accompaniment part to some of Mozart's piano sonatas for his students. Here, we recorded Sonata in C, K.545. It's a joy for pianists to be able to enjoy such a simple piano solo in a rich 2-piano duet arrangement. Especially with Grieg's liking for exotic harmony, there are some surprises here and there!
