The Piano Trios, written between 1784 and 1797, represent Haydn's art at its most enjoyable and fresh.
Three of the trios in this disc were dedicated to Rebecca Schroeter, who lived in London and was a close friend of the composer. The F sharp minor contains a version of the Adagio of Symphony No. 102, which it has been suggested was a favourite of hers. And the G major sports the famous 'Gypsy Rondo' finale (Rondo all'Ongarese), one of the most ebullient and best loved movements in the entire repertoire.
"the Kungsbacka's playing ensures all four trios bear witness to the variety, personality and sparkling invention that Haydn channelled into this delightful and multifaceted music."
(Daily Telegraph)
"The piano leads brightly, the violin seems a little recessive, and the cello supports well: a sequence of superb music which leaves one wanting more of the series."
