Peasmarsh Chamber Music Festival: Morning Concert – Trio Gaspard

Jonian Ilias Kadesha, Vashti Hunter, Nicholas Rimmer

• Haydn             Piano Trio No. 32 in A major, Hob XV:18
• Ravel               Piano Trio in A minor, M. 67

As the First World War was engulfing Europe, Ravel, in his haste to enlist, completed his trio with the ‘…sureness and lucidity of a madman’. It now stands as arguably the most inspired and important piano trio of the twentieth century. Full of character and invention, the concert opens with Haydn’s Piano Trio in A major.
