Dvorák: Piano Trios Nos. 3 & 4

Anton�n Dvor�k is undoubtedly the composer who, along with Bedrich Smetana (1824- 1884), brought Czech music to global prominence. It is worth noting that a quarter of Dvor�k's oeuvre consists of chamber music, an astonishing amount for a composer who was active in the second half of the 19th century. Dvor�k's four piano trios are, alongside his far more numerous string quartets, among the most significant chamber works he wrote. After the first two trios of 1875/76, which give an early indication of the composer's creative intensity, the trios presented here, namely op. 65 (1883) and op. 90 (1890/91), show him to be a fully accomplished master of this genre. The underlying sentiment of the four-movement Trio op. 65 in F minor might be described as somber, passionate and dramatic. This character is already evident in the opening idea, played by the strings in unison, a theme that then undergoes complex development and builds up to a first dramatic climax. The Mori Trio presents these works with vigor and aplomb.
