Frank Ezra Lévy, son of the legendary Swiss pianist and composer Ernst Lévy, can look back on a distinguished career as a cellist as well as a prolific catalogue of 177 published and widely admired compositions which include orchestral works recorded for Naxos (8.559234). Both of the trios on this recording were written for the Halcyon Trio: the first moving from a lyrical initial movement through a variety of moods to a jagged and contrapuntal finale, the second a single continuous movement. These trios explore the signature intensity of thematic transformation and development which also gives the duo Mythic Transformations its name, while the early Clarinet Sonata is a virtuoso workout for both performers.
