Synopsis
Spend Good Friday afternoon with the Aoi Trio as they bring you a concert of piano trios, from Beethoven's 'Ghost' Trio that Beethoven's pupil Carl Czerny commented, reminding him about "an appearance from the underworld... the first appearance of the ghost in Hamlet" to some of the last pieces the talented Lili Boulanger wrote before her untimely death in 1918 at the tragically tender age of 24. Tragedy alternates with exuberance in Dvořák's most popular trio, the Piano Trio no. 4 in E Minor 'Dumky'.
