Grieg - The Last Spring (Vaaren) - Guitar - P R Palmer

This is the second song from Edvard Grieg's Opus 34. It was the closing theme music from the 1950's TV family drama 'I Remember Mama'. This is my own transcription, played on my antonio Picado 2001 Model 62 classical guitar. The pictures are of my neighborhood flora.

Very nice! I have been looking for a transcription of this song for guitar. Would you be able to post one?

I have been searching off and on for months for "Varen" on guitar. I don't know why it took me this long to find your recording! Most gratifying, sir. Well worth the wait.

Thanks for the kind words! This is one of my favorite transcriptions. If you haven't yet heard Sissel's heavenly vocal (over a somewhat saccharine modern orchestral arrangement with tinkly piano), you're in for a treat.

Nice work Paul. This is such a wonderful piece accompanied by great pictures.

Thanks, Sensei. This one has been a recurring motif in my Lifesong for 60 years. I aim to do right by Grieg and the guitar and the listener. Your patient mentoring helps me approach that goal.
