BaL 26.10.24 - Schumann: Piano trio 1 (in D minor)

[Nick Armstrong]

It seems like nobody tuned in to hear Allyson.

No, I didn’t either.

I fast-forwarded, stopped briefly and heard AMcG say “you’ve given me a dessert metaphor, Allyson”, so hastened onwards to hear the Bach ‘record of the week’

I’ve saved the recommended Horszowski Trio recording for a listen (I see they’ve recorded the Fauré trio too, I’ll be listening to that as well)

[Mandryka]

In the G minor trio the Horszowski Trio seems like "museum quality" - immaculate sweet smooth refined playing which somehow lacks excitement of discovery. I may check their D minor later.
