Erich Korngold and Alexander Zemlinsky - Piano Trios

KORNGOLD AND ZEMLINSKY

Piano Trios

Beaux Arts Trio

Listening to Korngold's Op.1, you'd never suspect he was 12 years old when he composed it. It's the work of a mature composer, albeit one who would go on to find more of his own voice. But that's the case with all great artists of course. And Zemlinksy's works are always ingenious and rewarding. The professional relationship between these two composers makes the relationship between these two trios all the more interesting. As usual, the Beaux Arts Trio plays impeccably and Philips has created a magnificent recording. Highly recommended.
