Piano Trio No.1 (1854 version), Piano Quartet No.3 : Trio Wanderer, Gaugue(Va)

Acclaimed for it's extraordinarily sensitive style, almost telepathic understanding of each other and technical mastery, the Trio Wanderer is one of the world's foremost chamber ensembles. This program contains Brahms's Piano Trio No.1 and Piano Quartet No.3. Composed during 1854 and revised in 1889, the first trio is the only work by Brahms to exist in two published versions. Here, Trio Wanderer treats us to the rarely heard original score. The Piano Quartet No.3, sometimes called the Werther Quartet, is scored for violin, viola, cello and piano. For this performance, Trio Wanderer is joined by violist Christophe Gaugu.
