À l?époque classique et pendant une grande partie du 19e siècle les trios avec piano consti-tuaient pour ainsi dire des articles très tendance. Il n?est donc pas surprenant qu?après Haydn et Mozart Beethoven se soit lui aussi essayé à ce genre et ait laissé en tout 13 trios avec piano. Ce premier volume contient les trois trios avec piano op. 1 qui sont aussi les toutes premières ?uvres considérées par Beethoven comme dignes de porter un numéro d?opus. Ils sont ac-compagnés du trio op. 11 pour clarinette ou violon violoncelle et piano (dit «Gassenhauer»). Lorsque Beethoven présenta les trois trios op. 1 au public probablement lors d?une soirée chez le prince Lichnowsky en août1795 (à laquelle assistait aussi Joseph Haydn) il suscita une grande admiration. Ces trios restent jusqu?à ce jour des joyaux du genre.

No composer has ever achieved the amazing artistic progression that Haydn has. He invented the string quartet as we know it became known as 'the Father of the Symphony' and mentored the great Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. His creative life was one of ceaseless experimentation and invention. Author David Hurwitz shows readers how to more fully enjoy Haydn's music acquainting them with the master's innovative melodic creativity revolutionary use of musical form and important characteristics of his personal style such as his genius for writing in minor keys and creating comedy in his music. Hurwitz explores Haydn's vocal music and instrumental masterpieces that fall outsidethe mainstream as well as his principle instrumental works. A special chapter of letters and quotations by the composer himself introduces the reader to Haydn the man. Four appendices list all of his symphonies string quartets Piano sonatas and Piano trios and specify their distinguishing characteristics. Two accompanying Naxos CDs provide more than two and a half hours of beautiful music keyed to pieces described in the book.
