Gould Piano Trio - Schubert: Piano Trios, Volume 1 (2021) [Hi-Res]

In their second album for Resonus, the Gould Piano Trio returns with a recording of Franz Schubert’s Piano Trios. Apart from a very early single movement written when he was fifteen years of age, Schubert came to the piano trio late in his short career and left only two full-length works in the form, written in 1827-1828. By the time Schubert came to write his Piano Trios, the form had taken on a new stature thanks to work from composers such as Beethoven. Here, Schubert’s Trio in B-flat Major and the Notturno in E-flat Major are joined by the delightful Valses nobles, D. 969, composed for solo piano and heard here in a world premiere recording in this arrangement for trio by Julius Zellner.
