At age 24, the dazzling Swedish-Norwegian violinist Johan Dalene makes his Gardner Museum debut. His wide-ranging program includes sonatas by Schumann and Grieg. The latter, written in the weeks following Grieg’s marriage to soprano Nina Hagerup, bursts with folksy Norwegian joy, touched here and there by passing Nordic shadows.
