Since the death more than 50 years ago of Sir Thomas Beecham, who championed him (the Symphony in G minor was a Beecham favourite), the music of Edouard Lalo (1823-92) has rather languished here. But now comes a remarkable disc of his piano trios by the Leonore, who make a good case for them. If the rather Schumannesque first (c1850) is slightly anonymous, the other two, especially the B minor, are strong, original pieces—a real discovery. 
The suavity of playing is [a] key factor in lending all three trios the polish and panache that they merit. Geoffrey Norris
There's high virtuosity all round—superb light, dazzling backgrounds from Tim Horton, searing intensity of tone from violinist Benjamin Nabarro and cellist Gemma Rosefield. Now and then you might wonder if they're overstating the case but get into the spirit and it's terrific stuff.
