Mendelssohn is considered a self-critical composer, who repeatedly reworked a number of his pieces until he deemed them worthy to be published. The path to his first Piano Trio was particularly rocky: only after several attempts was he able to complete it in the summer of 1839; it appeared in 1840 after further revisions. This perfectionism paid off, for Mendelssohn's D Minor Trio was immediately received with enthusiasm. Robert Schumann wrote: “It is the master trio of the present day, like those of Beethoven in Bb and D and that of Franz Schubert in Eb were in their time; a very beautiful composition which after years will still delight grandchildren and great-grandchildren.† Which was to prove true: even today, it numbers among the most popular works in the trio repertoire in general. The trio, taken from the volume Mendelssohn • Piano Trios HN 957, is now available from Henle for the first time also as a practical single edition.

Requiem Trio. By Brotons Salvador. For violin, cello, piano. Chamber Music. The Requiem Trio was commissioned by the New York based Damocles Trio, and was written during the Summer of 2004. When I was thinking about the message of this new Trio, the catastrophic images of the New York terrorist attack on September 11, 2001 came to mind. I therefore decided to write a Trio as a tribute to the city of New York and to all the people that lost their lives on that tragic day. The four movements of the piece have titles taken from parts of the Requiem mass. Duration 20 minutes. Published by Brotons and Mercadal (Spanish import).
