String Trio, op. 3 / Serenade op. 8

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Frank Peter Zimmermann & Antoine Tamestit & Christian Poltéra

String Trio, Op. 3 and Serenade, Op. 8 are chamber works by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed in 1794 and 1797 respectively. Both are Classical-era string pieces that exhibit Beethoven's early approach to string writing—combining galant textures with increasing rhythmic drive and contrapuntal experimentation—and they mark stages in his transition from his Bonn roots to the developing Viennese classical style.
