The Piano Trios (Beaux Arts Trio) (2001)

Dubbele 9 (voor uitvoering en registratie) op ClassicsToday: "he Beethoven piano trios have been at the hub of the Beaux Arts Trios repertoire throughout its long history. Despite a series of personnel switches, the groups approach to Beethoven has remained outstandingly consistent for more than 40 years. The first-ever Beaux Arts Beethoven set is available in Philips The Early Years series (ook te vinden in onze collectie, HB). It was produced during the mid-1960s and did not include transcriptions of the Op. 20 Septet or Second symphony. When Isidore Cohen replaced violinist Daniel Guillet in 1968, the group (which also included the pianist Menahem Pressler, founder and longest serving member of the ensemble, and cellist Bernard Greenhouse) would not return to Beethoven for another decade. The trios next traversal, heard here, was recorded between 1979 and 1983. (A) magnificent cycle. A decade later, these superb interpretations havent been superseded."
