PROGRAM

Passing the Torch: Works by Brahms, Zemlinksy & Schoenberg

In 1853, Robert Schumann famously declard Johannes Brahms the composer destined to carry Beethoven's legacy forward. Four decades later, Brahms endorsed the publication of Alexander Zemlinksy's Trio, Op. 3 by Simrock in 1896. Three years later, in 1899, Zemlinksy's student, Arnold Schoenberg, composed his groundbreaking work,Verklärte Nacht, (Transfigured Night) Op. 4. We trace this remarkable arc of creativity through early piano trios of these three pivotal figures in the German musical tradition.
