Sølve Sigerland - Beethoven: String Trio, Op. 3 / Serenade, Op. 8 (2017)

Making their debut on the Lawo Classics label, the Ssens Trio was established in 2014 by three distinguished musicians with a wealth of experience in the international music scene. "Beethoven's 1797 String Trio in E-flat certainly marked him as a worthy successor to Haydn and Mozart, and here it is performed with obvious affection......Hats off to the seasoned Ssens Trio, and may their future recordings attain this lofty standard." - American Record Guide "the performances here by the Ssens Trio are something else. The beauty of tone, nuanced dynamics, sensitivity to the subtleties of phrasing, and rhythmic lift are really quite spellbinding." - Fanfare Magazine Violinist Slve Sigerland has devoted the greater part of his career to chamber music, while appearing as soloist with leading Scandinavian orchestras and is a member of the Grieg Trio. Henninge Landaas is co-principal viola of Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra and was a member of the internationally renowned Vertavo String Quartet and Ellen Margrete Flesj was a founding member of the Grieg Trio in 1987.
