Beethoven: The 11 Trios for Piano, Violin & Cello

Beaux Arts Trio : Menahem Pressler / Daniel Guilet / Bernard Greenhouse (2023 Remastered, Studio 1965)

4 disc(s) - 32 track(s)
Total length: 03:54:58

 

Ludwig van Beethoven, universally recognized and revered for his symphonies, excels beyond measure in chamber music. His piano trios for violin, cello, and piano must be considered foundational pillars of any serious music collection. Some of his finest compositions were written for this ensemble (Opus 70 No. 1 "Ghost", Opus 70 No. 2, Opus 97 "Archduke").

From early works (Opus Nos. 1 and 11) to mature masterpieces (Opus 97 and 121a), the Beaux Arts Trio, led by the dynamic and contrasting piano of Menahem Pressler, offers a cohesive and genuinely enjoyable complete recording. The remastered edition adds warmth and roundness to the string instruments, enhancing the harmonic and melodic softness of the moderate movements and the expressive tension of the more dynamic and rhythmical ones.

Enjoy your listening
