Program notes
After a brilliant reading of Schubert's exquisite first Piano Trio in B-flat Major, pianist András Schiff, violinist Yuuko Shiokawa, and cellist Miklós Perényi move on to the second of two, the famous E-flat Trio of Op. 100. An uncontested masterpiece of the genre, this work is especially beloved for the haunting melancholy of its instantly memorable second-movement Andante, inspired by a Swedish Lied and used in numerous films and series. As in the B-flat Trio, the ensemble brings remarkable emotional depth to their interpretation, outlining the towering expressive heights that make this work one of the most cherished chamber pieces ever written.
