"These delightful works are notable for the dexterity required of the pianist, and all, including the Trio No. 14, involve lively and innovative use of tonality."
Joseph Haydn's long-term employment as Kapellmeister at the palace of Eszterháza in Hungary is reflected in the dedication of his set of three Trios, Hob. XV:21-23 to Princess Marie Ermenegild Esterházy, though these were published in London during the second of Haydn's visits. These delightful works are notable for the dexterity required of the pianist, and all, including the Trio No. 14, involve lively and innovative use of tonality. Previous volumes in this series have been acclaimed for their "taste and stylistic insight". (Daily Telegraph on Volume 1, 8572040)
