À l?époque classique et pendant une grande partie du 19e siècle les trios avec piano consti-tuaient pour ainsi dire des articles très tendance. Il n?est donc pas surprenant qu?après Haydn et Mozart Beethoven se soit lui aussi essayé à ce genre et ait laissé en tout 13 trios avec piano. Ce premier volume contient les trois trios avec piano op. 1 qui sont aussi les toutes premières ?uvres considérées par Beethoven comme dignes de porter un numéro d?opus. Ils sont ac-compagnés du trio op. 11 pour clarinette ou violon violoncelle et piano (dit «Gassenhauer»). Lorsque Beethoven présenta les trois trios op. 1 au public probablement lors d?une soirée chez le prince Lichnowsky en août1795 (à laquelle assistait aussi Joseph Haydn) il suscita une grande admiration. Ces trios restent jusqu?à ce jour des joyaux du genre.

Per Violino, Violoncello E Pianoforte. Par CALLIGARIS SERGIO. Sergio Calligaris was born in Rosario (1941), Argentina. He is one of the last musicians to incarnate the traditional 19th century figure of pianist, teacher and composer, inaugurated at the beginning of the 19th century by Muzio Clementi and carriedon after that by a sequence of famous names that the history of music has handed down to us. As a pianist, he began to give public performances at the age of 13, making his debut in his home town Rosario. Following this success, he embarked upon an extremely busy career as a soloist, giving numerous recitals in Buenos Aires and other citiesin Argentina. He continued to take advanced lessons with eminent exponents of the most prestigious international piano schools. In 1974 he became an Italian citizen and settled in Rome, teaching piano as principal instrument at the S. Pietro a Majella StateConservatory in Naples, the Luisa DAnnunzio Conservatory in Pescara and the Alfredo Casella Conservatory in Aquila. As a composer, he began - at just 9 years of age - to study in the rigorous school of Paul Hindemith, under the guidance of Father Luis Machado, from whom he inherited a love of counterpoint and a strong taste for harmony. He took a diploma incomposition, counterpoint and fugue at the age of 16 at the Amigos del Arte Society in Rosario, going on in 1964 to do an advanced course in 12-tone counterpoint at the Cleveland Institute of Music. The catalogue of his compositions, which has nowreached Op. 55, encompasses a huge range of instrumental/vocal chamber music and symphonic works: a vast and articulated catalogue, in which Sergio Calligaris’s composition expresses its inspiration through the dramatic development of a dialecticalcontrast between the two natures of the composer’s personality - the elegiac and the dithyrambic - which confront and interact with each other giving rise to artistic outcomes of a deeply moving nature. / Niveau : Intermédiaire / Répertoire / Violon, Violoncelle et Piano

Ce trio pour piano, violon et violoncelle a été commandé par l'Association nationale des enseignants de musique à présenter et promouvoir la musique de collaboration. Elle a été créée lors de la Conférence MTNA en 2013. Inspiré par la musique de danse, la suite commence par un tango dans le premier mouvement. Les premières notes mélodiques du tango sont utilisés dans le deuxième mouvement, une valse brillante, portant cette suite de deux mouvements à une conclusion passionnante. / Violon, Violoncelle Et Piano
