Piano Trio No.2 / Piano Trio No.1

Album by Johannes Brahms & Felix Mendelssohn & Pau Casals

Piano Trio No.2 / Piano Trio No.1 is a pairing of chamber works by Johannes Brahms, composed in 1882 and 1854 respectively. These Romantic-era piano trios exemplify Brahms's command of lyrical melody, dense harmonic language and contrapuntal texture, with the earlier trio reflecting expansive, youthful virtuosity and the later trio showing a more concentrated, structurally economical maturity in his chamber writing.
