Best Answer

Grieg worked on two operatic works, both to texts by Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson. "Foran Sydens Kloster" (At the Cloister Gate), Op. 20, was composed as an operatic scene. A full-length Opera, "Olav Trygvason," Op. 50, was abandonded after three scenes when the librettist lost confidence in the project.

Is peer gynt an opera?

No, Peer Gynt is a play by Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen. It is written in verse, but most of the text is not set to music, as would be the case with an opera.Ibsen asked composer Edvard Grieg to write incidental music for the play. Several years later, Grieg arranged two orchestral suites out of selected movements, which are the pieces most frequently performed, today. The complete score for the music written for the play was not published until after Grieg's death.
