Talk:Peer Gynt (Grieg)

message: The Morning Mood article is a stub, and even though that particular movement is probably the most popular part of the suite, I think the information belongs with the suite's article. --AppaAliApsa (talk) 17:47, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. The content in those three articles should be moved to this article, and redirects should be created. Squandermania (talk) 14:37, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

text: Solveig's Song possibly but In The Hall of the Mountain King is an iconic piece and easily famous enough for it's own article Random5 18:44, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

text: In the Hall of the Mountain King at least deserves its own article as it has had a significant impact of its own. The relevant details should be in this article too, but it needn't get too bogged down in the detail. I agree that the current situation with the very messy Grieg's music in popular culture article as well as each of these isn't a good solution though. Perhaps a topic box at the bottom (or whatever they're called) to help with an overview of Wikipedia's articles would help too? --xensyriaT 03:47, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Merge Morning Mood with this page

message: The Adaptations section doesn't really belong here, what with the Simpsons references, etc: can it be moved to the Grieg's Music in Popular Culture page?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chrisjwmartin (talk • contribs) 14:45, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, I think it should be moved. I just finished cleaning up the article, Grieg's music in popular culture. Much of the info now in the Adaptations section is already there, but someone should move what isn't. Squandermania (talk) 16:09, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: In my opinion this entire section should simply be removed (without moving parts of it to another article) because not one single entry in it is referenced. See e.g. the Ride of the Valkyries and I Pagliacci articles, where all unreferenced entries in the In popular culture section have been removed.

thread_title:  Move Adaptations to "Grieg's Music in Popular Culture" 

message: According to Google Translate, Bruderovet / Ingrids klage means Robbery / Ingrid's complaint. The present translation is "Rape of the Bride / Ingrid and Peer". Rape in Norwegian seems to be voldtekt which doesn't appear in Grieg's title at all. Any native speakers care to comment? Woz2 (talk) 09:58, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I hold in my hand a copy of Edition Eulenburg, Peer Gynt suites minature (E E 6407). It has the title in 3 languages, German, English and Norwegian, these being: Bruderovet(Ingrids klage), Der Brautraub(Ingrids Klage), The Rape of the Bride(Ingrid's Lament). From the synopsis at the begining of the minature it says 'After raping Ingrid at the end of Act 1...' This book is copywrited 1970. As a modern day interpretation we proberbly do not accept it to be 'rape' but at the time it was composed/ writen Grieg/ Ibsen would have intended it to be 'rape' as it would have been politically correct at the time. I appologise for deleting the last talk, i am new to this, sorry. Thewar364 (talk) 10:52, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: No worries, I've restored the original comment/title. Rape used to have the additional meaning of "abduction" (as in The Rape of the Sabine Women), and it's this meaning that's used here. Since it's the conventional translation and most (if not all) recordings use it as the title of the piece, we shouldn't change it until a new translation becomes prevalent. --xensyriaT 22:11, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

message: This was an outstanding production for it's time (immediately after the war years and within the limitations of the small stage).Grieg's music in it's entirety was performed in the small orchestra pit and on stage.This was an outstanding production and should be remembered as such.

message: I am sure that I read, albeit many years ago, that Grieg and Ibsen were in Rome when working on Peer Gynt. If this is correct, it could be mentioned in this article as well as the article on Grieg. Vorbee (talk) 15:22, 21 August 2017 (UTC)

The Bitter Sweet Symphony Story (gurgeFR channel on YouTube)
To this layperson, it certainly sounds convincing that they key musical phrase of the Verve's very famous "Bitter Sweet Symphony" is identical to a segment of the introduction to the Peer Gynt Suite's Hall of the Mountain King speed up.
That musical phrase from Bitter Sweet Symphony is acknowledged as being repeated in over a half-dozen other pieces of popular music around the world.  So possibly Grieg had a much bigger impact on modern popular culture than you've considered.  
I'm not an expert.  I'm just asking.
