For five decades Sigmund Groven has had an international career as soloist, composer and recording artist. He made his recital debut on Norwegian radio in 1965, and his first LP saw release by Polydor in 1975. To celebrate these two anniversaries, Grappa Music Group is proudly presenting the “Sigmund Groven Collection”, a series of three CDs featuring highlights from his 40-year recording career as well as some newly recorded and previously unpublished tracks. Vol. 1, “Harmonica Hits” was released in 2014. Vol. 2, “Tradition” has a folk-music profile, and the future vol. 3 will focus on his classical repertoire. “In the right hands the lowly mouth-organ can be an instrument of great beauty and sophistication. Sigmund Groven, like Tommy Reilly and Larry Adler before him, makes full use of the wide range and tonal expressions that the harminica is capable of. His musicianship is superb, and he now unquestionably reigns supreme as one of the finest exponents of the harmonica in the world.” (Sir George Martin, producer of “The Beatles”)
