  • Description

    The debut album on Cavi from the Amatis Trio.

    "As a piano trio, we find it particularly interesting to discover music that is seldom recorded or performed. We enjoy the artistic challenge of interpreting
    such works using our own individual approach and it enables us to offer interesting and diverse programming. The idea of uncovering and recording
    lesser known pieces for our first CD led us to include a wonderful early work by George Enescu, his Trio No. 1, along with the youthful Benjamin
    Britten's Introduction and Allegro. Finding our own voice with these scores, free from preconceived musical ideas or influences, is a process that
    inspires us. It is an exploration that we regard as an invaluable experience. Both Enescu and Britten found inspiration through Ravel's music and this
    in turn led us to his Piano Trio in A minor, hailed as one of the great masterworks of the 20th century...."

    Recording of the Month by MusicWeb International:
    "Youthful adventures and a mature masterpiece form the programme for the Amatis Trio's first CD, though it has to be said that the masterpiece is full of youthful vigour and the early works possess considerable poise and precociousness, and signpost accomplishments to come… A fantastic debut disc."
