Trio Con Brio Copenhagen
The Trio Con Brio Copenhagen, consisting of two Korean sisters and a Danish pianist, celebrates its 25th anniversary with a new piece by Louise Alenius. They also champion the music of Mieczysław Weinberg, a Polish Jew who escaped the Holocaust and lived in exile in Russia. His piano trio reflects war and persecution. Schubert's second piano trio, while rich, also has dark undertones, processing a Swedish folk song about fading hope in its second movement. A 7-minute discussion will highlight aspects of the program.
