The repertoire for string trio is comparatively small, but in addition to the relevant works by Mozart, Beethoven and Reger, it also contains surprising, newly discovered and newly composed pieces. In the selection of pieces for the current recording, the Trio Lirico has looked off the beaten track with works by Eugene Ysaye, Ernst von Dohnanyi and Zoltan Kodaly. The programme is completed by a string trio by Peter Eotvos, a haunting memorial composition with a variety of different playing techniques and gestures of sound and expression.
