Solveig is a central character in the play Peer Gynt by Henrik Ibsen. She sings the famous "Solveig's Song" in Edvard Grieg's musical suite of the same name. Ibsen uses sun imagery in association to the character (scene 10, act 5), indicating that Ibsen may have favored the idea that the name is etymologically associated with the sun. There is also a female central character in the Argentine novelist Leopoldo Marechal's Adán Buenosayres named Solveig Amundsen. Furthermore, Solveig is the main character and narrator of Matthew J. Kirby's Icefall.
Marita Kvarving Sølberg (March 22, 1976) is a Norwegian soprano.





Kanske vil der gå både Vinter og Vår
Og naeste Sommer med, op det hele År
Men engang vil du komme, det ved jeg visst.
Her skal jeg nok vente, for det lovte jeg sidst.

Gud styrke dig, hvor du i Verden går
Gud glaede dig, hvis du for hans fodskammel står
Her skal jeg vente till du komme igjen

Og vente du hisst oppe, vi traeffes der, min Ven!

The French composer Hector Berlioz wrote a number of overtures, many of which have become popular concert items. They include overtures intended to introduce operas as well as independent concert overtures.
Le carnaval romain, ouverture pour orchestre (Roman Carnival Overture), Op. 9. Composed in 1844 and first performed at the Salle Herz, Paris, on 3 February 1844. A stand-alone overture intended for concert performance, made up of material and themes from Berlioz's opera Benvenuto Cellini, including some music from the opera's carnival scene – hence the overture's title. It is scored for large orchestra, is in the key of A major, and features a prominent and famous solo for the cor anglais.

O Carnaval dos Animais, em francês, Le Carnaval des Animaux, é uma peça para dois pianos e orquestra do compositor francês Camille Saint-Saëns composta em fevereiro de 1886, quando o compositor passava férias em uma pequena aldeia na Áustria, após ter chego de uma turnê sem muito sucesso na Alemanha.
Longe de ser uma inocente peça musical, o compositor tinha por objetivo fazer uma crítica ao cenário musical parisiense no fim do século XIX.
O compositor não permitiu que a obra fosse publicada durante em vida, pois temia que ela arruinasse sua reputação de "compositor sério". Cheia de referências a outros compositores, a obra foi publicada apenas após a sua morte (com exceção do movimento O Cisne que por ter caráter mais sério foi publicado ainda em vida).
Essa obra é composta por 14 movimentos para ser apresentada na terça-feira gorda de carnaval.

Three Concert Études (Trois études de concert), S.144, are a set of three piano études by Franz Liszt, composed between 1845–49 and published in Paris as Trois caprices poétiques with the three individual titles as they are known today. As the title indicates, they are intended not only for the acquisition of a better technique, but also for concert performance. Liszt himself was a virtuoso on the piano. Due to an unusual flexibility in his fourth fingers, he was easily able to play many complex patterns some consider difficult. The Italian subtitles now associated with the studies – Il lament ("The Lament"), La leggierezza ("Lightness"), Un sospiro ("A sigh") – were not in early editions.
Lang Lang (chinês tradicional: 郎朗, pinyin: Láng Lǎng; 14 de junho de 1982) é um pianista chinês mundialmente famoso.
Lang foi o primeiro pianista chinês a ser contratado pela Orquestra Filarmónica de Viena e pela Orquestra Filarmónica de Berlim.
