This concert features three of the loveliest, and greatest, piano trios in the repertoire, all from late in their composers’ careers: Mozart’s second-to-last trio, contemporaneous with the Jupiter Symphony; the last of Brahms’ trios, a profound and concentrated work composed in 1886, between his Fourth Symphony and the Double Concerto; and Fauré’s only trio, composed when he was 77, combining a lyrical, twilight mood and long-breathed melody. To conclude, we hear a rollicking trifle – Café Music, by Paul Schoenfield.
The Poinsett Piano Trio comprises German pianist David Gross, American violinist Deirdre Hutton and New Zealand cellist Christopher Hutton. They all teach at Furman University, Greenville, South Carolina. All have solo careers but in 2008 formed their trio, which has toured in the United States, Germany and New Zealand.
