Hungarian rock band. Edvard Grieg's "Peer Gynt Suite" recorded by PANTA RHEI in 1976. The music on this version is edited to a shorter time, for the video, the full version can be heard on their 1997 CD compilation Epilogus. Features mind blowing musicianship from the band. A pure ELP influenced band. A great rock adaption of a classical piece. Pure full on Prog Rock and Symphonic Music. CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED BAND!!

Not bad! Quite surprising how they performed "Anitra's Dance", I never would have imagined that particular piece could be realized as a "fusion-rock" number! But then again all of the classical greats were considered radical in their time..., especially Beethoven Mussorgsky. But I'll bet a week's pay if ol' Edvard himself were alive..., he'd be jammin' too!

No, it's from a very obscure Prog rock band from Hungary called 'Panta Rhei'. They were influenced by ELP though.

You probably never heard about Emerson, Lake Palmer,...right ?

i had never heared of this song before listening them here and after a month or so i've heared the first song on an azerbiagan t.v commercial

Maybe when they recorded this, they probably did not record it as a band together in one go?, maybe the drums would have sounded better if they had played as a band I wonder.

Well, i thought it was kinda cool... But the drum rythms sounds weird and messy, and even off beat sometimes.

WOW! Great Band! I didn't know them! Have you heard Los Canarios - Ciclos? Los Canarios is another underated band from Spain. Thank you for this treasure!
