About

The Piano Trio comprised only a very small section of Haydn’s oeuvre compared with his piano sonatas, string quartets and symphonies. This is perhaps the reason behind the all too common absence of Haydn’s trios from concert guides and schedules. They have been perpetuated more in domestic music-making, but in these scenarios the piano parts are often too difficult for amateurs to do justice to. This makes it all the more pleasing that Trio Opus 8, a trio at the forefront of chamber music making today, have chosen to record these neglected gems for Profil. 
 
Trio Opus 8: In 1986, three musicians who already had embarked on solo careers and received numerous prizes joined forces to form an extraordinary successful trio. "Opus 8" won prizes at chamber-music competitions in Colmar, Trieste and Florence that same year. The musicians have remained the same and the ensemble has performed in all important musical centres in Germany and abroad. It continues to bring home important prizes, from Berlin, from Bordeaux, from Trieste. Opus 8 has also undertaken very successful tours in the USA, Africa and South America.
 
Trio Opus 8: Eckhard Fischer (violin); Mario de Secondi (cello); Michael Hauber (piano)
