Herttrich Ernst (Editor) - Schilde Klaus (Editor). Par MENDELSSOHN-BARTHOLDY FELIX. After an early work and a discontinued attempt in 1831/32 Mendelssohn made his breakthrough in this important chamber music genre in the summer of 1839 with the Piano Trio in d minor op. 49, which was to be followed six years later by the Trio in c minor op. 66. On publication of the first trio, Schumann took the opportunity to describe the composer as the 'Mozart of the 19th century”, whereby he was obviously alluding to the mixture of Classical and Romantic stylistic elements.The musical text of these two famous Trios has been thoroughly revised to reflect the latest scholarly findings. In addition HN 1297 also includes a Flute part for the alternative version of op. 49 (Flute instead of Violin) that Mendelssohn himself made. / Classical / Répertoire / Violon, Violoncelle et Piano

Frédéric Chopin composa son trio de piano quand il avait 18 ans, étudiant. À propos de la performance du trio le 31 Août 1830, il écrit: 'Le dimanche, nous avons répété le trio. Peut-être parce que je n'ai pas entendu parler pendant un moment, j'étais très heureux avec moi-même (l'homme chanceux!) 'Par ailleurs, Robert Schumann a également partagé cette opinion, écrivant dans une revue: '. N'est-ce pas aussi noble que possible, plus plein d'enthousiasme que n'importe quelle chanson jamais écrite par un poète, original dans les moindres détails comme dans l'ensemble, chaque note de musique et de la vie? 'Nous sommes d'accord avec ce verdict et recommandent ce trio dans notre nouvelle édition Urtext à tous les amateurs de musique de chambre très romantique. / Trio De Pianos

Arensky's Piano Trio Op.32 was composed in memory of cellist Karl Davidov friend of both the composer and Tchaikovsky as well as director of the St. Petersburg Conservatory during Arensky's studies. The cello plays a prominent role in the trio at times matching or surpassing the violin in importance.

Piano Trio no. 1 in d minor op. 49. Mendelssohn is considered a self-critical composer, who repeatedly reworked a number of his pieces until he deemed them worthy to be published. The path to his first Piano Trio was particularly rocky: only after several attempts was he able to complete it in the summer of 1839: it appeared in 1840 after further revisions. This perfectionism paid off, for Mendelssohn?s d minor Trio was immediately received with enthusiasm. Robert Schumann wrote: ?It is the master trio of the present day, like those of Beethoven in Bb and D and that of Franz Schubert in Eb were in their time: a very beautiful composition which after years will still delight grandchildren and great-grandchildren.? Which was to prove true: even today, it numbers among the most popular works in the trio repertoire in general. The trio, taken from the volume Mendelssohn · Piano Trios HN 957, is now available from Henle for the first time also as a practical single edition.
