Bo-Gustaf Thorell has been a member of the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra's first violin section for over 40 years. Now, he takes the stage and forms a trio together with his son Daniel Thorell and the orchestra's pianist Stefan Lindgren.Johannes Brahms' first piano trio has almost symphonic proportions. After critical comments from Clara Schumann, Brahms' great and unfortunate love, this trio was almost consigned to the flames. Luckily, the self-critical Brahms revised the music instead, several decades after its first publication, and it is that version that we hear here.Laura Netzel's (1839–1927) romantic music gained great attention during the 19th century, especially in France where she had studied under the famous Charles-Marie Widor. In the early 20th century, she was one of Sweden's most successful composers internationally and broke new ground with her piano concerto. Now, we hear her warmly lyrical and romantic Serenade for piano trio.***Menu: Cauliflower soup with roasted pine nuts.

The horrors of the First World War have often been described in literature. Books such as Erich Maria Remarque’s »All Quiet on the Western Front« speak of the brutality of trench warfare and the deadening effect of being surrounded by death. However, there are also more optimistic accounts, such as the Christmas truce when enemies laid down their weapons and sang carols together. With his legendary baritone voice, Thomas Quasthoff reads from First World War letters and diaries. In alternation, the award-winning young Amatis Piano Trio performs excerpts from the Romantic and modern chamber music repertoire, reflecting the mood of the individual texts. Young soldiers of various nationalities are represented, as are relatives writing to the front from back home. The texts bear witness to the barbarism of war, and to youthful blue-eyed enthusiasm turning into disillusionment and horror in the face of the bloody reality. But they also reveal humanity and mutual respect – even between enemies. The stories speak of individual fates and give a face to the bare figures. They are accompanied by slow movements from piano trios by composers such as Schubert and Shostakovich, who composed his Piano Trio No. 2 while mourning the death of a friend in the Second World War. Works such as Korngold’s »Dogberry and Verges – March of the Watch«, which caricature the initial enthusiasm of young soldiers for war, lighten the mood.
Saison-Auftakt mit drei Trio-Ikonen. Ein früher Geniestreich des jungen Schostakowitsch begegnet einem musikalischen Glücksfall des späten Schubert und dem von Melancholie erfüllten »Trio élégiaque Nr. 1« von Rachmaninow. Schostakowitsch war gerade einmal 17, als er sein Klaviertrio komponierte, das aus seinen nachgelassenen Manuskripten erst 1983 veröffentlicht worden ist. Mit dem Klaviertrio von Schubert erlebt man eines seiner letzten und reifsten Werke, die nach Robert Schumann »wie eine zürnende Himmelserscheinung« über das damalige Musiktreiben hinweg gegangen ist. Intensiver und klangvoller kann eine Kammermusik-Reihe kaum beginnen.Konzertdauer: ca. 105 Minuten – inklusive Pause
Persian and European classical music, traditional songs from Turkey and Azerbaijan, jazz, and more: the Joolaee Trio’s concert programs combine a range of diverse musical influences. In their unusual lineup consisting of kamancheh player and leader Misagh Joolaee, percussionist Sebastian Flaig, and pianist Schaghajegh Nosrati—who will also be heard at the Pierre Boulez Saal with a solo recital in February—they perform original compositions and newly created arrangements.
Still in its first decade, Trio Pantoum has already established itself as one of today's leading young chamber ensembles. Their programme is a blend of repertoire favourites and rarer gems.
Composers have always been inspired by the seasons to write wonderful works. From Vivaldi’s »Four Seasons« to Tchaikovsky’s »Vremena Goda«, what they all have in common is a rich and amazing diversity.
Who hasn’t dreamed of travelling back in time? What would you want to change? – But aren’t such thoughts actually purely fictional? Well, from a scientific point of view, time travel is actually not impossible! Even more: they have long been possible! However, only in a very specific respect, namely when it comes to travelling through or into history. Preserved historical artefacts, such as documents, books and music, are generally the sources of our knowledge of the past. Not infrequently, such research can then shed new light on the present. Or, for example, broaden the present spectrum of sound ideas. Like, for example, the two pieces of music from the late period of the long 19th century quasi rediscovered by the Bawandi Trio and freshly recorded on CD.
