Piano Trios: No. 1 in D minor / No. 2 in C minor
Album by Felix Mendelssohn & Borodin Trio
Piano Trios: No. 1 in D minor / No. 2 in C minor are two piano trios by Felix Mendelssohn, composed in 1839 and 1845. They exemplify early Romantic chamber music with lyrical melodic writing, classical formal structures and expressive contrasts between piano and strings, reflecting a mature phase in Mendelssohn's chamber composing during the mid nineteenth century.
