  • Description

    Airy, transparent, light as a feather – if any composer’s music answers to these attributes, then it is that of Maurice Ravel, including his Piano Trio, even if this work too has its more serious moments. On its newest Super Audio CD the Vienna Piano Trio brings together this marvellously unique achievement and a very differently gripping trio by Ernest Chausson – a fascinating contrast and one most beautifully celebrated by our Vienna threesome. Along with Fauré and Franck, Chausson prepared the home turf for the next generation of composers. Debussy in particular enjoyed great support, and Maurice Ravel also profited from this development. It goes without saying that David McCarroll, Clemens Hagen, and Stefan Mendl meet with ease the enormous demands in playing technique that this transparent sound entails for instrumentalists. The rich and vibrant color with which these members of the Vienna Piano Trio present these scores is exhilarating.
