About

One of Spain’s most renowned Piano Trios, the Trío Arriaga, explores two masterpieces of the repertoire: Tchaikovsky’s ambitious two-movement Piano Trio, op. 50, and Shostakovich’s Trio No. 2, op. 67. Both composed under the inspiration of the death of a loved one, they represent a milestone of the chamber music repertoire, here brilliantly performed by the Trío Arriaga.
