The 5th Symphony, the »Symphony of Fate«, by Ludwig van Beethoven is perhaps the most famous symphony in music history, and not just because of the first four notes – about which Beethoven himself is said to have said, »Thus fate knocks at the door.« In the midst of the turmoil of war, revolution and personal crises, Beethoven wrote a work that revolutionised the entire world of music. His musical journey from minor to major, from darkness to light, inspired all future generations of composers.

Grieg compiled the most beautiful pieces of his original incidental music for Henrik Ibsen’s drama »Peer Gynt« into two orchestral suites, dispensing with the spoken dialogue and vocals. Morning Mood, the first movement of Peer Gynt Suite No. 1, is so frequently used in advertising, film and television that it is one of the best-known classical melodies. »In the Hall of the Mountain King« and »Solvejg’s Song« are also often quoted and are among Grieg’s most famous compositions.
