Beethoven (1770-1827)

Description:

Kremer’s latest release is Beethoven and Chopin! A piano trio version of the Triple Concerto is now available! Kremer tackles Beethoven and Chopin. Of course, his discs of Beethoven’s concertos and sonatas with Argerich have been long sellers, but this is his first attempt at the Triple Concerto. The violin, cello, and piano take the lead roles in this concerto, but only Kremer could have done it in the interesting version arranged by Carl Reinecke for piano trio only. Also, since Kremer rarely worked on Chopin’s works, everyone will find it very intriguing. Reinecke arranged Beethoven’s Triple Concerto for chamber music in 1866-7. While respecting the solo part of the original, Reinecke brilliantly divided the orchestral part among the three instruments (violin, cello, and piano) and adapted the playing style to suit each instrument. The result is a new version of the piano trio that
