about this program
Balancing the extremes of light and dark, this program brings together two paragons of the piano trio repertoire, Joseph Haydn and Johannes Brahms, with the little-known piano trio by Enrique Granados — a masterpiece left languishing and unpublished for more than 80 years after its premiere.
Each piece in this program showcases the full expressive range of the piano trio, swinging unpredictably between moments of hilarity and genuine tragedy.
