The Three Piano Trios

Album by Johannes Brahms & Borodin Trio

The Three Piano Trios are a set of three chamber works by Johannes Brahms, composed between 1854 and 1886. They exemplify Romantic chamber music, combining classical forms with rich piano writing, dense harmonic textures and contrapuntal interplay, and they chart important stages in Brahms's development from his early influences to his mature chamber-music style.
