description

For this third volume of their complete recording of Beethoven’s piano trios, the Busch Trio presents the famous Trio in D Major, known as the ‘Ghost’ – a title which, according to Czerny, is likely a reference to Shakespeare and, in the slow movement, to the first appearance of the ghost in Hamlet.

For the second trio of Opus 70, Beethoven chose the key of E-Flat Major, which gave rise to the ‘Eroica’ Symphony and would, in 1809, inspire the no less heroic ‘Emperor’ Concerto. The Variations in G major, Op. 121a, based on an aria from a comic Singspiel by Wenzel Müller, round off this programme. In these, Beethoven builds up the most grandiloquent introduction in all his chamber music.

Works:

•Beethoven: Piano Trio No. 5 in D major, Op. 70 No. 1 'The Ghost'
•Beethoven: Piano Trio No. 6 in E flat Major, Op. 70 No. 2
•Beethoven: Variations in G major on Wenzel Muller's Ich bin der Schneider Kakadu, Op. 121a
