TRIOVANBEETHOVEN - Beethoven: Piano Trios Vol. 1

Beethoven as the symbol of affinity to the masters of Viennese Classicism, but also as a visionary and a trigger of the new - this is in keeping with the 'main focus' of the TrioVanBeethoven: the cultivation of classical trio literature, but also composition commissions for world premieres or crossover projects are features of its activity. Nevertheless, with their first CD recording Clemens Zeilinger, Verena Stourzh and Erich Oskar Huetter devote themselves to the name giver of their ensemble with an arch from Beethoven's first listed work, the Piano Trio in E flat major op. 1/1, the even earlier Trio in E flat major WoO 38 (work without opus number) up to one of the best-known works of the genre, the Piano Trio in D major op. 70/1, which was later given the sobriquet of 'Ghost Trio' because of the sometimes mystic mood in the slow movement.
