Trio in d minor op. 3-Alexander Zemlinsky is mainly known for his operas and orchestral songs with their opulent late Romantic orchestration. His earlier inspired hit the Trio For Clarinet Op. 3 written in 1896 owes agreat deal to Zemlinsky’s first important role model Johannes Brahms as far as inflection and instrumentation are concerned. It was also Brahms who following its first performance in Vienna enthusiastically recommendedthe trio to his publisher Simrock.As the autograph has disappeared Henle’s edition follows the musical text in the first edition. It underwent careful examination and was cleared of numerous partly blatant engraver’serrors. Alongside the Piano score Henle’s edition comprises a part for Clarinet in Bb/A and an authentic alternative part for Violin as well as a Cello part.

Eb Instruments-This CD (including music booklet) has not especially been worked out for the use in musical education. It is on the contrary an audio CD which has been recorded for sale as a trio CD under my name. Mixing the recordings at the studio however gave us the idea to offer this CD Legal Paradizer also as a play along CD. For this reason I have never taken a pedagogic approach to the musical conception of the pieces performed which in my opinion is exactly what makes these recordings so unique. The structure of none of the pieces is for instance as simple as that of the tunes on some other play along CDs. Therefore I have taken the liberty of adding a short explanationand/or comment on every piece meant to make it easier for you to follow the road map of the tunes. Additionally I have explained some stylistic features to help you interprete the individual pieces. Working with my students has shown me how much fun it can be to also offer groove and funk oriented music on a CD to play along. In most of the pieces you do not necessarily have to follow the changes; you should rather develop simple ideas in time. A real strong emphasis is here placed on the term groove.
