About

The acclaimed Fidelio Trio make their Resonus deItalicbut with an exquisite recording of French piano trios – Camille Saint-Saëns’s large-scale Second Trio, op.92, and Maurice Ravel’s sole foray into the genre dating from 1914.

Coming off the back of a Royal Philharmonic Society Award nomination in 2016, this recording sees the Trio expand on their unparalleled reputation for new music demonstrating the vast range of this brilliant chamber group’s abilities and talent.

‘Ravel’s Piano Trio was a lyric upwelling … the Fidelio players brought it off superbly, and it was a joy’
- The Sunday Times

‘This is a bold and powerful recording, thoughtfully recorded, showing the young Fidelio Trio to be a force to be reckoned with’
- International Record Review

Reviews

The Fidelio [Trio] have done their thinking for the Saint-Saëns and the result is superb: you certainly know that the piano is working hard with all those arpeggios and rapid, keyboard-crossing chords, but the performance is all of a piece, with the violin and cello speaking with just as much authority and élan. ... The Fidelio’s interpretation possesses admirable clarity and definition, polish and brio, qualities they bring also to a very different world of sound in the Ravel Trio. In both works their interpretative touch is secure, their rapport instinctive. Together with their eloquence and passion, this all adds up to something special.  Geoffrey Norris
