Description:
Smetana Trio: Latest Recordings from 2009 Schubert’s Trio No. 2—one of the few works that brought him success during his lifetime Mendelssohn’s Trio No. 1—which Schumann hailed as an “immortal masterpiece” The Smetana Trio, one of today’s leading ensembles, has recorded Schubert’s Trio No. 2 and Mendelssohn’s Trio—both highly popular works that form a cornerstone of their repertoire. “Just as Beethoven’s trios, or Schubert’s Trio in E-flat major, were in their day, this is unquestionably a masterpiece of our own era. It is an exceptionally beautiful work that will continue to delight our grandchildren and great-grandchildren for generations to come.” This anecdote of Schumann’s high praise serves as the ultimate endorsement of Mendelssohn’s Trio in D minor. The first movement, bursting with passion; the Andante, singing with joy; the light and lively Scherzo; and the finale, which takes up the rhythmic, sombre rondo theme in turn and culminates in a single, exhilarating burst. You can truly feel that Schumann’s words ring true in every part of the piece. Schubert’s Trio No. 2, whose second-movement theme stays in your head after just one listen, is an unquestionable masterpiece—especially considering that, unusually for Schubert, whose works remained largely unpublished during his lifetime, this was the only piece of his published abroad while he was still alive. It’s no wonder it remains so popular to this day. With this pairing of two masterpieces and the Smetana Trio’s well-balanced performance, the album flies by. It’s the kind of album you’ll want to listen to over and over again, both pieces combined. King International
