  • Description

    Nikolay Roslavets was one of the great musical innovators of the 1920s, described by Stravinsky as 'the most interesting Russian composer of the 20th century,' but vilified by the Soviet regime on account of his constant experimentation. His Piano Trio No. 4 is notable for its romantic and passionate spirit, and complex polyphony. Shostakovich's Piano Trio No. 2 is one of the most harrowing and revered of all his chamber works. The Piano Trio No. 1, a remarkable composition for a 16-year-old student, is a work of romantic intensity cast in a musical language recognisably that of Shostakovich.
