Out of the Jurisdiction: Edvard Grieg

Before departing Bergen, we visited Troldhaugen, the home of Edvard Grieg, Norway's famous composer.  We were treated to a piano concert in the nearby concert hall.

    Somehow that's just the kind of house I would have imagined Grieg inhabiting.

    How great to be able to see his home, and listen to his music. Wow, a real treat.

    I am so pleased you went there, and even heard his music being played in his home!
    30 years ago I did the same, but I have only been there once.
    Bergen is a beautiful city I have been there many times.
