Schumann: Piano Trios
The Florestan Trio
CDA67063
The Florestan Trio now turns its attention to Schumann's Piano Trios. These two works, Opp 63 and 80, were composed in rapid succession in the summer and autumn of 1847, some five years after the prolific year when Schumann composed most of his large-scale chamber works.
The Florestan Trio's earlier CDs, of Dvořák Piano Trios and the complete Brahms Trios, received outstanding praise; this disc is sure to do the same.
