Schubert - Piano Trios Nos. 1 & 2

Trio Wanderer

HMC 902002.03

The Trio Wanderer celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2007! To mark the occasion, these two CDs offer a chance to rediscover the group’s recording of Schubert’s complete music for piano trio, which was enthusiastically received by the critics on its release in 2000. The set closely follows the composer’s evolution from his beginnings as a gifted schoolboy to his maturity, illustrating the gradual emancipation of his style through constant struggle with the masters of the past – Mozart, Haydn, and of course Beethoven. These trios enjoyed a new lease of life in the 1970s thanks to the success of the film Barry Lyndon.
