Audio Player
How lovely that GENUIN repeatedly gives in to its hankering for the serial novel genre: For the classical label’s new collaboration with Trio Ex Aequo bearing the title “Beethoven” will make listeners hope for more. From the stately introductory phrases of the “Archduke” Trio all the way to the brooding final notes of the wild early work of the young iconoclast from Bonn, this production is convincing because of its long, sustained phrasing, tonal beauty and its unique reading of the recorded works. The artists Gerald Fauth (piano), Matthias Wollong (violin) and Matthias Moosdorf (cello) have earned plaudits – may the next release not be long in waiting!
