Haydn: Complete Piano Trios
Product description No Description AvailableNo Track Information Available Media Type: CD Artist: HAYDN,J. Title: PIANO TRIOS-COMP Street Release Date: 09/16/1997Domestic Genre: CLASSICAL COMPOSERS Amazon.com Haydn's piano trios deserve far more attention than they receive. As music lovers know, they are every bit as rewarding as his symphonies and string quartets, and also very numerous. They are not, however, true trios as we understand the term now. Essentially, Haydn took the sonata for violin and piano and added a cello part to strengthen the weak bass of contemporary pianos. This doesn't inhibit the quality of the music in any way, but it has prevented modern piano trios from taking them up since the cellist usually wants something more exciting to do. All praise, then, to the Beaux Arts Trio for understanding that musical quality is more important than instrumental display. --David Hurwitz
