Work: Piano Trio no. 1 in B major, Op.8

With Christoph Koncz, the Orchestre National de Mulhouse punches above its weight to bring to a close a delightful and varied stay at the Festival International de Colmar.

Renaud Capuçon brings his customary taste, refinement and intellect to music he has played many times over the years with a variety of partners – here Julia Hagen and Igor Levit. 

Festivals and academies breed familiarity and mutual compassion between audiences and returning artists. Yet the warmly informal feel of this concert owed mostly to the close relationships between the musicians themselves.
