The Russian piano trio reached its apogee with Tchaikovskys Piano Trio in A minor, dedicated to the memory of Nikolay Rubinstein. A monumental piece in the repertoire, it is cast in only two movements, and was played at Tchaikovskys own memorial concert two years after its composition. Paul Pabst's Piano Trio in A major is less well known. Composed in memory of Nikolay Rubinsteins brother, Anton, it is a work of exceptional virtuosity and flowing lyricism, with unpredictable harmonies, a delightful Intermezzo and a tour de force of a Finale.
"This is a very satisfying recording of Tchaikovsky's Trio, and while the Pabst is a minor work, it's good to have it on disc. This looks like a promising series. Recommended." Fanfare
