En vivo, Video: Buscador de críticas de conciertos de música clásica, ópera, ballet y danza | Trío de cuerda en si bemol mayor, D.471

While there is a rich and varied literature for piano trio, works of quality that are composed purely for string trio (violin, viola and cello) are thin on the ground. Trio Zimmermann gave us a rare opportunity to hear some of the absolute gems from the repertoire this morning in a packed Queen's Hall in Edinburgh.

The lively acoustic of the lovely Stenton Parish Church, 23 miles east of Edinburgh, hosted the fourth of sixteen concerts in this year's Lammermuir Festival, the motto of which is Beautiful music – beautiful places. I have to confess to a carbon sin of the mind in being prepared to undertake the 46-mile car journey to hear 5 minutes of music by György Kurtág.
