Did anyone hear the Geir Tveitt orchestration of that piece when it was broadcast by the BBC the other day? (or indeed any other recording or performance?) Ionly caught a bit but it sounded rather gorgeous.

There's an excellent performance by Andsnes on Youtube:

Sorry, don't know where the first half it.

Here's him talking about it/playing it:
(preceded by a little Fjordal performance of the Grieg concerto)

Also try to find Godowsky AMAZING performance of this work.
