Beethoven at his most authentic [Beethoven Special]

Individually, they rank among the most distinguished musicians of their generation. Together, Isabelle Faust, Jean-Guihen Queyras and Alexander Melnikov form a trio of rare intensity. As they tackle Beethoven’s mature piano trios on historical instruments, the stage is set for magic. This is Beethoven at his most authentic: sharp contrasts, wild eruptions and lyrical outpourings, performed at the highest possible level.

Although the trio never presents itself as a permanent trio, they have been playing together for many years. ‘They combine with a unity of purpose rare in such ensembles’, wrote The Guardian. ‘There were times tonight when Faust and Queyras could have been two manifestations of a single musician.’
