About

The great popularity of the piano trio enabled Haydn to explore countless formal and harmonic experiments; while the keyboard remains the central element in the musical structure, the strings give the discourse a subtle colouration, and the violin is often assigned independent musical ideas. This elegant three-way dialogue, conducted here by the Trio Wanderer, is as impressive for its originality as for its supreme stylistic virtuosity. Haydn was a past master at this little game, and still remains so centuries later!

Trio Wanderer:
- Jean-Marc Phillips-Varjabédian (violin)
- Raphaël Pidoux (cello)
- Vincent Coq (piano)

Reviews

These are beautifully played performances, set in a generous enough acoustic (the Teldex Studio in Berlin) to give each instrument full voice: the pizzicato accompaniment to the piano’s cantilena in No 14, for example, is pleasingly plump.  David Threasher
