Program
- Clara Schumann, Piano Trio in g minor, Op. 17
- Joan Tower, Big Sky
- Franz Schubert, Piano Trio No. 2 in E-flat Major, Op. 100, D. 929
At its best, chamber music is a conversation between friends, and nowhere is that more apparent than within the piano trio genre: grand canvases painted with intimate expression. Clara Schumann’s under-appreciated gem embodies the drama of the Romantic era with transparency and grace, Joan Tower contemplates the expansive beauty of the Andes, and Schubert, at the end of his life, stretches to the horizon with a monument of the repertoire.
"[They] ranged brilliantly over a huge spectrum…this memorable performance was evocative, cathartic, and simply ravishing. "
— The Boston Musical lntelligencer
